Dual Xeon 2U server for virtualization and databases

The Dell PowerEdge R730 packs two Xeon E5-2683 v4 processors at 2.1 GHz with 16 cores each and 64 GB of DDR4 ECC memory. A PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache manages up to ten 2.5-inch SAS drives in RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 or 60. Dual 750 W platinum supplies and iDRAC8 Enterprise provide redundant power and remote management.

Suited for consolidation, VDI and HPC data nodes.

This configuration targets midsize and large enterprises running data warehouses, e-commerce platforms, virtual desktop infrastructure or high-performance computing tasks that scale across many CPU threads and SAS storage. The dual-socket design maxes at two processors, so workloads needing more sockets or GPU acceleration should evaluate other platforms.

Ten 600 GB 10 K SAS drives on a battery-backed H730

The chassis ships with ten enterprise 600 GB 10 K SAS disks connected to the H730 controller, whose battery-backed cache protects writes during power loss. This drive count and RAID flexibility determine whether the array meets capacity and IOPS targets for the intended database or virtualization layer.

Questions about this item

What motherboard socket do I need to support the two Xeon E5-2683 v4 CPUs?

The CPUs use LGA 2011-3 sockets; the server board already provides both.

Can I keep my existing 6 Gb/s SAS drives and run them with the PERC H730 controller?

Yes, the H730 supports 12 Gb/s SAS and SATA and is backward compatible with 6 Gb/s drives.

How do I verify the RAID array is healthy after the first boot?

Open the PERC H730 BIOS or iDRAC8 Enterprise interface and confirm all virtual disks show Optimal status.
