Dual 16-core Xeon density

The PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server built around two Intel Xeon E5-2683 v4 processors running at 2.1 GHz with a 3.0 GHz turbo. Each CPU delivers 16 cores, giving 32 threads total for heavily threaded workloads such as virtualisation clusters, database nodes or high-performance computing jobs. The system ships with 512 GB of DDR4-2400 registered ECC memory across 16 modules, leaving eight slots free for future expansion up to 1.5 TB.

10-bay SAS storage and quad-port networking

Ten 2.5-inch drive bays are populated with 600 GB 10 K SAS disks driven by a PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache and battery-backed write cache. The controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. A quad-port network daughter card adds two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ connections for storage and client traffic. iDRAC 8 Enterprise provides dedicated remote management, and ready rails with a front bezel simplify rack installation.

Redundant platinum power for sustained throughput

Dual 750 W platinum-efficiency power supplies operate in hot-swap redundant configuration, keeping the server running during a module failure or maintenance swap. The 2U chassis uses front-to-back airflow tuned for continuous operation at full CPU and storage load without thermal throttling. This combination of redundant power, high-core-count CPUs and high-speed SAS storage makes the platform suited to workloads that demand steady throughput rather than short bursts.

Questions about this item

At what temperature do the dual E5-2683 v4 CPUs throttle under continuous full load?

The 16-core Xeon processors run at 2.1 GHz base with 3.0 GHz turbo; sustained all-core work will hold the base frequency once the thermal envelope of the 2U chassis is reached.

How loud are the system fans when both 750 W power supplies and all ten 600 GB SAS drives run 24/7?

Fan speed is managed by iDRAC8 Enterprise based on inlet temperature and component load; expect elevated but data-centre-typical acoustic output under continuous operation.

Which SFP+ transceivers and cabling are required to use the two 10 GbE ports on the X520/I350 daughter card?

The card provides two 10 Gb SFP+ ports; you must supply compatible SFP+ modules and fibre or direct-attach cables, as none are included with the server.
