Dual 14-core Xeon server for virtualisation

The PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server built around two Intel Xeon E5-2683 v3 processors running at 2.0 GHz with a 3.0 GHz turbo frequency. Each CPU provides 14 cores, giving 28 threads total for heavily threaded workloads. The system ships with 512 GB of DDR4-2133 registered ECC memory across 16 DIMM slots, leaving eight slots free for future expansion up to the 1.5 TB platform maximum.

Suits teams running virtualised workloads

This configuration targets organisations that need high core counts and large memory capacity for virtual desktop infrastructure, data warehousing or high-performance computing nodes. The eight 800 GB SATA SSDs and PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache deliver fast local storage for active datasets. Buyers who require more than 24 DIMM slots, more than two processor sockets, or storage interfaces other than SATA and SAS should evaluate alternative platforms.

PERC H730 controller with 1 GB battery-backed cache

The Dell PERC H730 mini controller supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode, backed by a battery to protect write data during power loss. It manages the eight installed 2.5-inch 800 GB SATA SSDs through a 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA interface. Network connectivity is provided by an Intel X520/I350 quad-port daughter card offering two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports, while iDRAC 8 Enterprise enables full remote management.

Questions about this item

Does the server ship with all 24 DIMM slots populated or are there free slots for extra DDR4?

The 512 GB is already installed as 16 × 32 GB DDR4 registered ECC modules, leaving 8 of the 24 slots open for further expansion up to 1.5 TB.

Which storage controller is fitted and what RAID levels does it support?

A Dell PERC H730 1 GB mini controller with battery backs RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 for the eight 800 GB SATA SSDs.

What sustained throughput can the eight 800 GB SATA SSDs deliver through the H730 controller?

Each drive runs at SATA 6 Gb/s; the H730’s 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA interface aggregates the array for high-throughput database and virtualisation workloads.
