Cisco UCS C220 M5 10-Bay SFF Barebones Server

Start with a 1U Cisco UCS C220 M5 rack-server base configured for ten small-form-factor drive positions. The compact rack footprint and dense SFF storage layout suit deployments that need substantial drive capacity without moving to a larger chassis. Core compute, memory, storage, expansion, and power components remain open for selection rather than being supplied in the base configuration. SP-NCO-BB200M5U provides the 10-drive SFF barebones configuration for the UCS C220 M5 platform. It does not include a CPU, memory, hard drives, PCIe cards, or power supplies. That distinction matters when matching the server to an existing component standard or building a system around separately selected compute, storage, and I/O requirements. The base platform avoids preinstalled parts that could conflict with the intended configuration. Complete the system by fitting the required processors, memory modules, storage drives, PCIe options, and power supplies before deployment. The ten SFF drive positions provide the physical storage layout for compact drives, while the barebones configuration keeps storage media selection separate from the server base. This is a chassis-level starting point for teams assembling a C220 M5 system to a defined technical configuration.
