RJ Digital Alliance — Engineering the future

Server Hardware, Configured and Supplied in Mumbai

Most of the people who ask us for a server need one of three things, and only one of them is a server. RJ Digital Alliance configures and supplies server hardware from Lamington Road, Mumbai — and this page is here to work out which of the three you are before you spend anything, because the cheapest server we can sell you is the one you turn out not to need.

Read from stock on hand at the moment you loaded this page. A platform we cannot complete is not counted and the builder will not offer it.

Three servers, priced from stock today

Dearest first. Each one is a complete tower server we can build this week — processor, board, registered memory, drives and power — not a configuration page.

Retail, GST-inclusive, and they move with the catalogue. Change any part in the builder; the compatibility checks follow you.

Do you actually need a server?

This is the question worth getting right, and the one nobody selling servers wants to ask. Read the last column before the others.

If that table points at the last column, the NAS shelf below is the right place to start and it will cost you considerably less. We would rather sell you that.

What we can complete today

The platform figure counts sockets where a processor, a board and matching registered memory are all on the shelf at the same time. It was zero until we socket-tagged the boards in September, and it returns to zero on its own if the last board sells.

What is it for?

Servers are sized backwards from the job. Each of these runs out of something different first, and the one that binds decides the build.

The parts these machines are built from

In stock and priced. Each shelf links through to its full category — this page is a starting point for those pages, not a replacement for them.

Server processors

EPYC and Xeon parts, with the core count and the memory channels stated. The channels usually matter more than the cores.

All server processors

Enterprise drives

Drives rated for continuous duty and for the vibration of sitting beside three others. A desktop drive in a four-bay machine is the commonest cause of an early failure.

All enterprise drives

NAS enclosures

For file and backup work, a NAS is very often the right answer and a server is not. Listed here because talking you out of a server is sometimes the correct outcome.

All nas enclosures

Power supplies

Rated wattage with the efficiency certification stated. Headroom is measured against the real draw of the parts, not against the badge.

All power supplies

Networking

Switches, adapters and cabling. A server on a saturated gigabit link is a fast machine behind a slow door.

All networking

UPS

A server that loses power mid-write is how a filesystem gets corrupted. Sized against the measured draw of the machine we quote you.

All ups

A shelf is hidden whenever it cannot show at least six things we can actually sell. The server motherboard shelf is hidden most of the time for exactly that reason: we hold few boards, and three under a confident heading would read as a range.

How a server order runs

  1. Workload first, parts last (You and our counter) — What runs on it, how many people use it, how much data, and what happens to the business if it is down for a day. That last answer changes the build more than the first three.
  2. Platform and channel plan (Workshop) — Socket, how many memory channels and how they get populated, decided before a single part is priced.
  3. Storage layout and power (Workshop) — Drive count, interface and redundancy, then a power supply with measured headroom and a UPS sized against the real draw.
  4. Itemised GST quotation (Sales) — Line by line, warranty route named per item, with a stated validity. Component prices move week to week.
  5. Assembled and burnt in (Workshop) — Built, then run under sustained load — memory, drives and thermals — before it leaves. A server that is stable for ten minutes is not yet a server.
  6. Invoice, handover, and someone to call (Accounts) — GST invoice recording serial numbers where parts carry them, with the warranty route for each item in writing.

What you can check before you pay

Each of these is verifiable on the quotation or in the builder, which is the only kind of assurance worth printing.

How we describe our own position

We configure, assemble, test and supply server hardware from our own workshop, with GST invoicing and a warranty route named per component. That is the claim in full.

We build tower servers. We do not currently stock rack chassis, rails or rack-mount power, so if you need a rack-mounted machine we will say so rather than quote you one we would then have to go and find. We are not an OEM server partner — we do not hold Dell, HPE or Lenovo server partner status — we are not a data-centre integrator, and we do not offer managed services, monitoring or an SLA. If your requirement needs any of those, it needs a different supplier and we will tell you that early.

What we do offer is the part most suppliers skip: working out with you whether the machine you asked for is the machine you need. A NAS instead of a server, or a second drive and a real backup instead of either, is frequently the honest answer, and it is the cheapest thing on this page.

Questions people ask

Do I need a server, or would a NAS do?

If the job is shared files, backups and media, a NAS is usually the better answer: it costs less, administers itself through a web page and is designed to run unattended. You need a server when software has to run centrally — a database, a line-of-business application, virtual machines. We stock both and we would rather sell you the cheaper one that fits.

Do you supply rack-mounted servers?

Not from stock. We hold no rack chassis, rails or rack-mount power supplies, so everything on this page is a tower. For a small office that is usually the right form factor anyway — it is quieter, cheaper and needs no rack. If you genuinely need rack mounting, tell us and we will be straight with you about whether we can source it.

Registered or unbuffered memory — what is the difference?

Registered (RDIMM) memory puts a buffer between the controller and the memory chips, which is what lets a server address far more of it. It is not optional: a server platform will not start on unbuffered modules, and unbuffered will not fit the channel count these boards expect. The builder refuses the wrong combination rather than quoting it.

How many memory channels do I have to populate?

All of them, if you want the platform's rated bandwidth. An 8-channel EPYC with two modules fitted runs at roughly a quarter of its memory bandwidth, and on a virtualisation host every guest pays for that. Our quotations populate the channels and price every module.

Do you supply Dell, HPE or Lenovo servers?

No. We are not an OEM server partner and we do not claim to be. We build on components — Supermicro and other boards, EPYC and Xeon processors, registered ECC memory — and we assemble and test them ourselves. If your procurement policy requires a branded OEM server with an OEM support contract, that is a different supplier and we will say so.

Do you offer monitoring, management or an SLA?

No. We supply and configure hardware; we do not offer managed services, remote monitoring or a service-level agreement. We will hand over a machine that has been burnt in, documented and invoiced with its warranty routes, and we will help when something fails — but that is support, not an SLA, and the difference matters if you are writing it into a contract.

Which server platforms can you build on right now?

The count is on this page and it is read live from stock, because it changes. A platform only counts when the processor, the board and matching registered memory are all available at the same time, and the builder will not offer you one it cannot complete.

Can I see it running before I pay?

Yes — we are at Lamington Road, Mumbai. Servers are burnt in under sustained load at the workshop and you are welcome to come and watch yours under test before it is invoiced. For orders shipping outside Mumbai we send the test results instead.
