Dual Xeon 10-core 2U server

This new Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server fitted with two Intel Xeon E5-2660 v3 processors. Each CPU runs at 2.6 GHz with a 3.3 GHz turbo and provides ten cores, giving twenty cores in total. The system includes 256 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across eight 32 GB modules and a PERC H730 storage controller with 1 GB cache.

Suits virtualisation and database nodes.

The server targets midsize and large enterprises running virtual desktop infrastructure, databases, data warehousing or high-performance computing as a data node. Quad-port networking with two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports plus iDRAC 8 Enterprise remote management support dense, managed deployments. Buyers who need GPU acceleration or more than two processors should consider a different platform.

8-bay 2.5-inch chassis

Eight hot-swap 2.5-inch drive bays are populated with two 400 GB SATA SSDs and the PERC H730 controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through. Two 750 W platinum hot-swap power supplies provide redundancy. The chassis includes ready rails and a front bezel, and memory can be expanded to 1.5 TB across twenty-four DDR4 slots.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 256 GB DDR4 configuration or add more memory later?

The system ships with 256 GB across eight 32 GB DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC modules and has 24 slots total, so you can expand up to 1.5 TB if workloads grow.

What does the 2.6 GHz Xeon E5-2660 v3 speed deliver in daily use?

Each of the two 10-core processors runs at 2.6 GHz base and can turbo to 3.3 GHz, giving strong multi-threaded throughput for virtualization, databases and HPC nodes.

How does the PERC H730 controller limit drive performance?

The H730 1 GB mini controller supports 12 Gb/s SAS and SATA with RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60, so SATA SSDs are capped at 6 Gb/s while SAS drives can use the full 12 Gb/s link.
