2U rack server with dual 14-core Xeon

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack-mount server fitted with two Intel Xeon E5-2660 v4 processors, each running at 2.0 GHz with 14 cores and a 3.2 GHz turbo frequency. It ships with 768 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory installed across 24 slots and a maximum capacity of 1.5 TB. Eight 400 GB SATA SSDs are pre-loaded and managed by a PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache and battery backup.

Dual-socket virtualisation and database node

This configuration suits organisations running virtualised workloads, databases or high-performance computing data nodes that benefit from 28 total cores and a large memory footprint. The dual 750 W redundant power supplies and iDRAC 8 Enterprise remote management support continuous operation. Buyers who need more than two processor sockets, a different storage interface than SATA or SAS, or a form factor other than 2U should evaluate alternative platforms.

PERC H730 controller with eight SATA SSDs

The storage subsystem centres on the Dell PERC H730 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA RAID controller offering RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 modes plus pass-through. Eight enterprise-grade 400 GB SATA 6 Gb/s 2.5-inch SSDs are installed in the front-accessible drive bays. This combination determines whether the server meets the capacity, redundancy and throughput requirements of the intended workload.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box with the PowerEdge R730 and what must be purchased separately?

The server includes 2x Xeon E5-2660 v4 processors, 768GB DDR4 memory, 8x 400GB SATA SSDs, PERC H730 controller, X520/I350 quad-port network card, iDRAC8 Enterprise, 2x 750W PSUs, rails and bezel. Operating system and hypervisor licences are not included.

Should I choose the 768GB DDR4 configuration or add more memory up to the 1.5TB maximum?

The system ships with 24x 32GB DDR4 modules filling all 24 slots. To reach 1.5TB you must replace every module with higher-capacity DDR4 RDIMMs; there are no empty slots for simple expansion.

How does the 2.0GHz base clock with 3.2GHz turbo translate to real-world throughput on the dual 14-core Xeons?

Each E5-2660 v4 provides 14 cores at 2.0GHz base and up to 3.2GHz turbo, giving 28 cores total. Actual throughput depends on workload threading, thermal limits and the 2400MHz DDR4 memory bandwidth available.
