Specifications of OptiPlex 7000 Tower
Dimensions and weight
The following table lists the height, width, depth, and weight of your OptiPlex 7000 Tower.
Processors
The following table lists the details of the processors supported by your OptiPlex 7000 Tower.
NOTE: Global Standard Products (GSP) are a subset of Dell’s relationship products that are managed for availability and
synchronized transitions on a worldwide basis. They ensure the same platform is available for purchase globally. This allows
customers to reduce the number of configurations managed on a worldwide basis, thereby reducing their costs. They also
enable companies to implement global IT standards by locking in specific product configurations worldwide.
Device Guard (DG) and Credential Guard (CG) are the new security features that are only available on Windows today.
Device Guard is a combination of enterprise-related hardware and software security features that, when configured together,
will lock a device down so that it can only run trusted applications. If it is not a trusted application, it cannot run.
Credential Guard uses virtualization-based security to isolate secrets (credentials) so that only privileged system software can
access them. Unauthorized access to these secrets can lead to credential theft attacks. Credential Guard prevents these
attacks by protecting NTLM password hashes and Kerberos Ticket Granting Tickets.
NOTE: Processor numbers are not a measure of performance. Processor availability is subject to change and may vary by
region/country.

state drive
RAID 0 (Striped, Performance) volumes benefit from higher performance when drives are matched because the data is split
across multiple drives: any IO operations with block sizes larger than the stripe size will split the IO and become constrained by
the slowest of the drives. For RAID 0 IO operations where block sizes are smaller than the stripe size, whichever drive the IO
operation targets will determine the performance, which increases variability and results in inconsistent latencies. This variability
is particularly pronounced for write operations and it can be problematic for applications that are latency sensitive. One such
example of this is any application that performs thousands of random writes per second in very small block sizes.
RAID 1 (Mirrored, Data Protection) volumes benefit from higher performance when drives are matched because the data
is mirrored across multiple drives: all IO operations must be performed identically to both drives, thus variations in drive
performance when the models are different, results in the IO operations completing only as fast as the slowest drive. While
this does not suffer the variable latency issue in small random IO operations as with RAID 0 across heterogeneous drives, the
impact is nonetheless large because the higher performing drive becomes limited in all IO types. One of the worst examples of
constrained performance here is when using unbuffered IO. To ensure writes are fully committed to non-volatile regions of the
RAID volume, unbuffered IO bypasses cache (for example by using the Force Unit Access bit in the NVMe protocol) and the IO
operation will not complete until all the drives in the RAID volume have completed the request to commit the data. This kind of
IO operation completely negates any advantage of a higher performing drive in the volume.
Care must be taken to match not only the drive vendor, capacity, and class, but also the specific model. Drives from the same
vendor, with the same capacity, and even within the same class, can have very different performance characteristics for certain
types of IO operations. Thus, matching by model ensures that the RAID volumes is comprised of an homogeneous array of drives
that will deliver all the benefits of a RAID volume without incurring the additional penalties when one or more drives in the
volume are lower performing.
OptiPlex 7000 Tower supports RAID with more than one hard drive configuration.
NOTE: The maximum capacity supported by the media-card reader varies depending on the standard of the media card
installed in your computer.
