DRAC in PowerEdge 1750
Just picked up some used Dell PE 1750's, and was planning to add Drac's in them, but I can't seem to find which drac to use. Anyone that has any experience with this model?
Talked with a salesperson at Dell, first he didn't seem to know what Drac was, and after a while he came back to me with Drac IV which fits into PE1850. He belived it also should fit into 1750, but I don't belive that.

Ask your Dell rep to have a tech guy contact you as they should certainly be able to tell you which one you need.

The PE1750's use the Drac 3, just contact Dell Peripherals or whomever as you'll need to order the internal Drac card for them, pop the case, remove a plastic fan cover (i believe) then slot it in.
Drac 4 is for the new models only as far as I'm aware, I hadn't heard of them being backward compatiable with the older models. As suggested above, have your sales guy get a tech on the phone to look up the hardware to give you an answer that you can hold them to.
