Dual 12-core Xeon server for enterprise workloads

The PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2680 v3 processors, each running at 2.5 GHz with 12 cores. It ships with 128 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 24 slots, supporting up to 1.5 TB total capacity. This configuration targets midsize and large enterprises running data warehouses, virtual desktop infrastructure, databases or high-performance computing nodes. Buyers needing GPU density or single-thread optimisation should look elsewhere.

Sustained throughput with hardware RAID and dual

Under continuous load the PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache manages RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across eight 2.5-inch SATA bays, backed by a battery for write protection. Two 400 GB enterprise SATA SSDs provide fast boot and caching tiers. The Intel X520/I350 daughter card delivers two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports for storage and cluster traffic. Redundant 750 W platinum power supplies maintain uptime during module replacement.

24 DIMM slots define maximum memory ceiling

The Intel C610 chipset and LGA 2011-3 sockets limit the platform to DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC modules across 24 slots, capping total RAM at 1.5 TB. This slot count and memory generation are fixed by the processor generation and cannot be upgraded to newer standards. iDRAC 8 Enterprise provides out-of-band management for remote deployment and monitoring. Rail kit and front bezel are included for immediate rack installation.

Questions about this item

How much power do the dual 750 Watt supplies draw when the server runs continuously?

Each supply is rated at 750 Watt Platinum efficiency; actual draw depends on workload and redundancy mode.

What rack and cabling must I already have to install this 2U unit?

The server includes Ready Rails and a front bezel for a standard 2U rack space; you supply IEC power cords and network cables for the quad-port X520/I350 card.

Can the PERC H730 controller manage my existing 2.5-inch SATA drives alongside the installed 400GB SSDs?

Yes, the H730 supports SATA and SAS drives in the same 8-bay chassis and offers RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode.
