Dual Xeon E5-2660 v3 2U rack server

This new Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server fitted with two Intel Xeon E5-2660 v3 processors. Each CPU runs at 2.6 GHz with 10 cores and a 3.3 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 128 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across eight 16 GB modules. Storage is handled by a PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache driving eight 800 GB SATA SSDs. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies provide redundancy.

Suits virtualisation and database nodes.

The server targets midsize to large enterprises running virtual desktop infrastructure, databases, data warehousing or high-performance computing data nodes. Quad-port networking with two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports plus iDRAC 8 Enterprise management supports dense virtualisation. The 2.5-inch drive bays and lack of PCIe GPU clearance make it unsuitable for workloads that require graphics acceleration or additional add-in cards. Buyers needing more storage bays or GPU compute should evaluate other platforms.

PERC H730 RAID controller with 1 GB cache

The Dell PERC H730 mini controller delivers 12 Gb/s SAS and SATA connectivity with a 1 GB battery-backed cache. It supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 as well as pass-through mode. This controller determines the storage performance and data-protection options available for the eight installed 800 GB SSDs and any future drives added to the chassis.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the dual Xeon E5-2660 v3 processors are running at their 2.6GHz base and 3.3GHz turbo speeds after installation?

Check the iDRAC8 Enterprise dashboard or the BIOS System Profile to confirm both 10-core CPUs report 2.6GHz base frequency and 3.3GHz turbo under load.

What comes included with the R730 and which key components are not supplied?

The server ships with 2x 750W PSUs, 128GB DDR4 (8x 16GB), 8x 800GB SATA SSDs, H730 controller with battery, X520/I350 quad-port NIC, iDRAC8 Enterprise, rails and bezel. OS drives and SFP+ transceivers are not included.

Which memory capacity should I choose if I want to expand beyond the installed 128GB DDR4?

The system has 24 DIMM slots supporting up to 1.5TB total. With 8 slots populated by 16GB modules, you can add 16GB DDR4 RDIMMs to the remaining 16 slots for incremental growth.
