Dual 14-core Xeon 2.4 GHz server

The PowerEdge R730 packs two Intel Xeon E5-2680 v4 processors, each with 14 cores at 2.4 GHz and a 3.3 GHz turbo. 768 GB of DDR4-2400 registered ECC memory fills all 24 slots, supporting large-scale virtualisation, database and HPC workloads. Eight 300 GB 10K SAS drives connect through a PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache and battery-backed write cache.

Redundant 750 W platinum supplies

Two 750 watt platinum-efficiency power supplies share the load and can be replaced without shutdown. The 2U chassis uses Dell’s engineered airflow to keep both CPUs, memory and drive bays within thermal limits during normal operation. iDRAC 8 Enterprise provides out-of-band thermal monitoring and alerting so administrators can react before thresholds are breached.

Sustained multi-threaded throughput

Under continuous load the dual 14-core CPUs maintain high clock speeds across all 28 threads, while the H730 controller sustains write performance through its battery-backed cache. Quad-port networking with two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ links prevents I/O bottlenecks during prolonged database or VDI sessions. The system supports up to 1.5 TB of memory for future expansion.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 24 DDR4 memory modules into the R730's slots, and what step is often missed?

Populate all 24 slots with the 32 GB registered ECC DIMMs following the CPU-specific channel order shown on the system board label; the step often missed is enabling the memory training sequence in the BIOS after the first boot so the 2400 MHz speed is confirmed.

What maintenance will the PERC H730 controller's battery-backed cache require over time?

The 1 GB cache on the H730 uses a replaceable battery module; plan to swap it every three to five years or when iDRAC 8 Enterprise reports a degraded cache state to keep RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 write-back performance intact.

At what point does the dual 750 W power supply redundancy become the limiting factor under sustained load?

With two Xeon E5-2680 v4 processors at 2.4 GHz base and 3.3 GHz turbo plus 768 GB of DDR4 and eight 300 GB 10K SAS drives, the combined draw approaches the 750 W per supply rating, so loss of one PSU removes headroom for turbo boost.
