Dual Xeon E5-2620 v3 2U Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2620 v3 processors running at 2.40 GHz with 3.2 GHz turbo. It ships with 256 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory across 24 slots, supporting up to 1.5 TB total capacity. This configuration targets midsize and large enterprise workloads such as databases, virtual desktop infrastructure, and high-performance computing data nodes.

PERC H730 Storage With Eight 2.4 TB SAS Drives

The integrated Dell PERC H730 controller provides 1 GB cache and 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA connectivity with battery backup. It supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through modes across the eight installed 2.5-inch 10K SAS drives. Redundant hot-swap 750 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC 8 Enterprise remote management are included, alongside ready rails and a front bezel for immediate rack deployment.

Quad-Port 1 GbE And 10 Gb SFP+ Networking

The Intel X520/I350 daughter card delivers two 1 GbE ports and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports for flexible network segmentation. Under sustained load the dual six-core processors and large memory pool maintain throughput for virtualisation clusters and data-intensive applications. The system maxes out at two processors, so buyers needing higher core counts or additional PCIe expansion should evaluate larger platforms.

Questions about this item

What is the first limit that appears under sustained heavy workloads?

The two Xeon E5-2620 v3 CPUs top out at 2.4 GHz base frequency with a 3.2 GHz turbo ceiling, so sustained compute throughput is capped by those clock speeds.

How much heat and power should I plan for when the server runs continuously?

Dual 750 W platinum power supplies deliver redundant hot-swap power; under full load the pair can draw up to their rated capacity, so cooling must handle that thermal output.

Which components must already be on site for this R730 to operate?

You need a standard rack for the 2U chassis and the included rails, SFP+ transceivers for the X520 10 GbE ports, and an operating system or hypervisor installed on the PERC H730 RAID volume.
