Dual 16-core Xeon server for enterprise workloads

The PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server built for midsize and large enterprises running data warehouses, e-commerce platforms, virtual desktop infrastructure, databases or high-performance computing nodes. Two Intel Xeon E5-2683 v4 processors provide 32 total cores at 2.1 GHz with 3.0 GHz turbo for heavy multi-threaded tasks. It is not suited for buyers who need single-thread speed above all else or workloads that require GPU acceleration.

256 GB registered ECC DDR4 across 24 slots

Memory capacity is the decisive specification: 256 GB of DDR4 2400 MHz registered ECC is installed in eight 32 GB modules, leaving 16 of the 24 DIMM slots free for expansion up to the 1.5 TB maximum. The LGA 2011-3 platform and Intel C610 chipset dictate this memory generation and topology. Buyers who need a different memory type or a higher factory-populated capacity must choose another system.

Redundant 750 W platinum supplies

Dual 750 watt platinum-efficiency power supplies provide full redundancy with hot-swap replacement. Eight 2.5-inch SAS drive bays hold the included 2.4 TB 10K drives and connect to the PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. The 2U chassis uses forced-air cooling designed for continuous operation in standard rack environments.

Questions about this item

What does the 2.1 GHz base clock mean when both 16-core Xeon processors are running a sustained workload?

Two Xeon E5-2683 v4 CPUs give 32 total cores at 2.1 GHz base with 3.0 GHz turbo, delivering high multi-thread throughput for virtualization and database tasks.

What does the PERC H730 12 Gb/s SAS controller cap in real-world drive performance?

The H730 supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through at 12 Gb/s SAS, so eight 2.4 TB 10K drives are limited by the controller and drive link speed.

What rack depth and mounting hardware are needed for the 2U chassis with included rails?

The 2U server ships with ready rails and a front bezel for standard 2U rack mounting; depth clearance depends on the specific rack used.
