Built for midsize and large enterprise workloads

This 2U rack server ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2640 v3 processors running at 2.6 GHz with 3.4 GHz turbo. It includes 512 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory across 16 modules. The Dell PERC H730 controller manages eight 2.4 TB 10K SAS drives in a 2.5 inch form factor. Dual 750 watt platinum power supplies provide redundant hot-swap power.

Storage and network limits

The PERC H730 handles SAS and SATA drives with RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through at 12 Gb/s. Eight 2.5 inch bays set the physical drive ceiling. Network connectivity comes from a quad-port daughter card delivering two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ links. Memory tops out at 1.5 TB across 24 DDR4 slots. Processor sockets max out at two LGA 2011-3 CPUs.

Check rack space, power and memory plans

Verify you have 2U of rack height and compatible rails for the included Ready Rails kit. Confirm your PDU can feed two 750 watt supplies with the correct connectors. Plan any DDR4 expansion around the 24 registered ECC slots and 1.5 TB ceiling. Ensure your workload fits within eight 2.5 inch SAS bays and the H730 RAID feature set. iDRAC 8 Enterprise requires a dedicated management network port.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 512 GB DDR4 configuration or add more modules up to the 1.5 TB maximum?

The server ships with 512 GB (16 x 32 GB) DDR4-2133 ECC registered memory installed across 24 slots, leaving 8 slots free for future expansion to the 1.5 TB limit.

What does the 2.6 GHz base clock with 3.4 GHz turbo mean for actual workloads?

Each of the two Xeon E5-2640 v3 processors has 8 cores running at 2.6 GHz base and can boost to 3.4 GHz under load, giving 16 total cores for virtualisation, databases or HPC tasks.

How does the PERC H730 12 Gb/s SAS controller limit drive performance?

The H730 supports 12 Gb/s SAS and SATA with RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60, so the eight 2.4 TB 10K SAS drives can deliver full 12 Gb/s bandwidth per drive.
