Dual-socket Xeon E5-2680 v4 server

This Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server built around two Intel Xeon E5-2680 v4 processors. Each CPU provides 14 cores at 2.4 GHz with a 3.3 GHz turbo frequency. The system ships with 256 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across eight 32 GB modules. Eight 2.4 TB 10K SAS drives connect through a PERC H730 1 GB controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC 8 Enterprise remote management complete the package.

Virtualisation and database workloads

The 28 total cores and large memory capacity suit virtualised environments, database servers and high-performance computing nodes. Quad-port networking with two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ links handles heavy east-west traffic. Organisations that need GPU compute, more than 24 DIMM slots or a different drive interface should consider other platforms because the chassis provides eight 2.5-inch SAS bays and the memory controller is limited to DDR4.

PERC H730 RAID controller with 1 GB cache

The storage subsystem centres on the Dell PERC H730 controller with 1 GB of battery-backed cache. It manages the eight installed 2.4 TB SAS drives and supports pass-through mode for non-RAID configurations. This controller determines which RAID levels are available and whether the array can survive a power loss without data corruption. Buyers must confirm that the H730 feature set matches their redundancy and performance requirements before deployment.

Questions about this item

Do I need to populate all 24 DDR4 slots to reach the 1.5TB maximum memory capacity?

The 1.5TB maximum requires all 24 slots filled with compatible DDR4 registered ECC modules. The server currently has 8 slots occupied by 32GB modules totalling 256GB.

Will my existing 6Gb/s SAS drives work with the PERC H730 12Gb/s controller?

Yes, the PERC H730 supports both 12Gb/s and 6Gb/s SAS and SATA drives, so older drives will function at their native speed.

How can I verify the dual Xeon E5-2680 v4 processors are both recognised after installation?

Check the iDRAC8 Enterprise interface or the system BIOS; both will display two 14-core CPUs running at 2.40GHz with 3.3GHz turbo capability.
