Dual 18-Core Xeon Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2699 v3 processors. Each CPU delivers 18 cores running at 2.3 GHz with a 3.6 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 64 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory across four modules. It targets midsize and large enterprises running data warehouses, e-commerce, VDI, databases or high-performance computing workloads.

PERC H730 RAID Controller

Storage is handled by a Dell PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache and a battery backup. It supports SAS and SATA drives with RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. Eight 300 GB 10K SAS 12 Gb/s 2.5-inch hard drives are installed in the front bays. This configuration replaces older arrays limited to slower controllers or smaller drive counts when higher IOPS and hardware RAID flexibility are required.

24 DIMM Slots and Dual 750 W PSUs

The motherboard provides 24 DIMM slots supporting up to 1.5 TB of DDR4 registered ECC memory. Two hot-swap 750 W platinum power supplies deliver redundant power. A quad-port network daughter card adds two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ connections. iDRAC 8 Enterprise enables remote management. Verify that your rack accepts 2U depth, that your network infrastructure supports SFP+ transceivers, and that your workload licences are compatible with the installed processor generation before ordering.

Questions about this item

What rack height and mounting hardware does the R730 need?

The server occupies 2U of rack height and ships with Ready Rails for installation in a standard rack.

How are the dual Xeon E5-2699 v3 processors and 64GB DDR4 memory installed, and what step is often missed?

Both processors are pre-installed in the two LGA 2011-3 sockets; the four 16GB DDR4 2133MHz RDIMMs are factory-seated across the 24 slots, but the memory configuration must match the processor population for full channel performance.

Which components will need replacement first in the R730?

The eight 300GB 10K SAS drives and the PERC H730 controller battery are the primary maintenance items; the hot-swap 750W power supplies and system fans are also field-replaceable units.
