Attachment J1 - Server Minimum Requirements.xlsx

This is a server hardware specifications document that outlines the minimum technical requirements for the Library of Congress Baton QC Automated Server System Replacement project. The specification designates a Dell PowerEdge R750 server as the baseline platform, standardized on Dell Server components per Library of Congress procurement standards. The server configuration includes a single PowerEdge R750 unit equipped with an Intel Xeon 6 Performance 6527P processor (3.0G, 24C/48T, 24GT/s, 144M Cache, 255W), 64GB of DDR5-6400 RDIMM memory (two 32GB modules in performance-optimized configuration), and dual 960GB SAS/SATA SSDs configured in RAID 1 for boot optimization using a PERC H745 controller. The system includes a 2.5-inch chassis supporting up to 16 SAS/SATA drives, iDRAC9 Express 15G embedded systems management, network connectivity via Broadcom 5720 Quad Port 1GbE OCP 3.0 adapter and Broadcom 57412 Dual Port 10GbE SFP+ adapter, and Windows Server Standard Edition (24-core license) as the operating system.

The specification mandates dual 1400W redundant power supplies in hot-plug configuration, UEFI BIOS boot mode with GPT partitioning, ReadyRails sliding rails for rack mounting, and standard cooling with six fans. Support services include next business day on-site support for 36 months with no extended warranty upgrade selected. The contract vehicle is firm-fixed-price, and this attachment specification supports the overall Library of Congress solicitation 2026-LGR-0010 for the Baton system replacement, which also encompasses installation services, integration of government-furnished KVM system hardware, software installation, and hardware warranty support. Offeror questions were due by February 27, 2026, with proposals due by March 13, 2026.
