Dual-socket Xeon rack 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 6 cores each. It ships with 512 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 16 DIMM slots and a PERC H730 storage controller with 1 GB cache. Eight 1.2 TB 10K SAS drives and dual 750 W power supplies are installed.

Virtualisation and database hosts.

This configuration suits teams consolidating virtual machines, running databases or hosting VDI workloads that benefit from high core counts and large memory capacity. The quad-port 1 GbE and 10 GbE SFP+ network card supports heavy east-west traffic. Buyers who need GPU acceleration, all-flash tiers or single-thread frequency above 3.2 GHz should look at alternative platforms.

512 GB DDR4 registered ECC memory

The system arrives with 512 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory populated in 16 of 24 slots, leaving room to scale toward the 1.5 TB maximum. Memory type and rank must match for any expansion, so this installed capacity is the key figure when planning upgrades.

Questions about this item

How loud and hot does the R730 get with both 750 W Platinum PSUs and dual 2.4 GHz Xeons running 24/7?

Dual 750 W Platinum supplies and two 2.4 GHz 6-core Xeons draw significant power under load; expect noticeable fan noise and heat output in a 2U rack space.

Which cabling and modules do I need to use the X520/I350 daughter card's two 10 GbE SFP+ ports?

The card presents two 10 GbE SFP+ cages; you must supply compatible SFP+ transceivers or direct-attach cables for fibre or copper links.

Can the PERC H730 controller manage the eight installed 1.2 TB 10K SAS drives together with older 6 Gb/s SAS disks I might add?

The H730 supports 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA and will negotiate down to 6 Gb/s for older drives, allowing mixed arrays across the 8-bay backplane.
