Dual Xeon E5-2660 v4 2U Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server built for midsize and large enterprise workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2660 v4 processors running at 2.0 GHz with 14 cores each. The system includes 256 GB of DDR4 2400 MHz registered ECC memory across eight 32 GB modules. A PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache manages the two installed 400 GB SATA SSDs.

Suited for virtualisation and database nodes

This server fits environments that need dual-socket compute density and hardware RAID in a 2U form factor. The quad-port network daughter card provides two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ connections for flexible fabric attachment. Buyers who need more than 24 DIMM slots or more than eight 2.5-inch drive bays should look at a different chassis. Workloads requiring GPU acceleration or single-thread speeds above the 3.2 GHz turbo are not a match for this platform.

256 GB DDR4 registered ECC memory

The installed 256 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory occupies eight of the 24 available slots and runs at 2400 MHz. This capacity supports moderate virtualisation densities and in-memory database workloads out of the box. Expansion up to the 1.5 TB maximum requires additional registered ECC DDR4 modules compatible with the Intel C610 chipset.

Questions about this item

How are the included Ready Rails installed in a rack, and what step is often missed?

The rails attach to the front and rear vertical posts of a standard rack; the step often missed is fully extending the inner rail sections until they lock before sliding the chassis in.

What maintenance will the PERC H730 controller battery require over time?

The 1 GB cache battery on the H730 controller will eventually lose charge capacity and should be replaced when the iDRAC 8 Enterprise interface reports a battery health warning.

Which limit appears first when both CPUs run at the 3.2 GHz turbo frequency under sustained load?

The dual 750 watt platinum power supplies set the thermal and power ceiling before the cooling or memory bandwidth limits are reached.
