Embedded networking is 2x 1 GbE LOM (Broadcom 5720 class) for management and low-bandwidth use.

A SAN-attach build (for example dual 32G Fibre Channel HBAs) consumes the PCIe slots and a dual-socket configuration.

We build R450 units with iDRAC9 Enterprise unless asked otherwise, because the 4-Bay LFF is exactly the kind of box that lands in a remote branch: virtual console and virtual media turn a multi-day on-site trip into a remote fix.
