Dual Xeon 12-core server for virtualisation

The PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2680 v3 processors, each running at 2.5 GHz with a 3.3 GHz turbo frequency. Twelve cores per chip deliver 24 threads total, suited to virtualisation hosts, database nodes and high-performance computing tasks. It ships with 64 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory across four 16 GB modules.

Storage controller and drive bay limits

The PERC H730 1 GB controller supports SAS and SATA drives with RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. Eight 2.5-inch front bays are populated with ten 600 GB 10 K SAS disks, meaning the configuration uses additional internal space beyond the standard bay count. Maximum memory capacity reaches 1.5 TB across 24 DDR4 slots.

Dual 750 W platinum power supplies

Redundant hot-swap 750 watt platinum-efficiency units power the chassis, allowing one supply to fail without downtime. Buyers needing higher GPU density or specialised accelerator cards should verify PCIe slot availability and power budget before purchase. The system includes iDRAC8 Enterprise for remote management, quad-port networking with two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports, plus rails and bezel.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 2.5 GHz or 3.3 GHz turbo version of the Xeon E5-2680 v3?

Both speeds belong to the same processor; the 2.5 GHz base runs at 3.3 GHz turbo when thermal headroom allows, so there is no separate version to choose.

What does the 2.5 GHz base clock with 3.3 GHz turbo mean for real workloads?

Each of the 2 installed Xeon E5-2680 v3 chips has 12 cores running at 2.5 GHz base and can boost to 3.3 GHz, providing up to 24 cores for virtualization, databases or HPC tasks.

How does the 12 Gb/s SAS controller and 10Gb SFP+ networking limit actual throughput?

The PERC H730 1GB controller supports 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA links, and the X520/I350 card provides 2x 10Gb SFP+ plus 2x 1GbE ports, capping storage and network speeds at those rates.
