Dual 14-core Xeon 2U server for dense virtualisation

The PowerEdge R730 packs two Intel Xeon E5-2680 v4 processors at 2.4 GHz with 14 cores each, 512 GB of DDR4 2400 MHz registered ECC memory across 16 slots, and a PERC H730 1 GB RAID controller driving eight 1.2 TB 10K SAS drives in a 2U rack chassis with dual 750 W platinum power supplies.

Ideal for memory-heavy workloads.

Organisations running virtual desktop infrastructure, database clusters or high-performance computing data nodes benefit from the 28 total cores and 1.5 TB maximum memory headroom, while the quad-port 1 GbE and 10 Gb SFP+ network daughter card supports high-throughput east-west traffic.

PERC H730 RAID controller with battery-backed cache

The installed H730 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through, and its 1 GB non-volatile cache protects in-flight writes during power loss — a decisive factor for workloads that require consistent write latency and data integrity across the eight 1.2 TB spindles.

Questions about this item

What rack depth and rail kit does the 2U R730 chassis require?

The server is a 2U rack-mount unit that ships with Dell Ready Rails for standard four-post racks; verify your cabinet depth accommodates the full chassis length before mounting.

How are the two Xeon E5-2680 v4 processors and 16 DDR4 memory modules installed, and what step is often missed?

Both LGA 2011-3 sockets are already populated with the 14-core CPUs, and the 24 DIMM slots hold 16×32 GB registered ECC DDR4; the common oversight is not enabling the memory training sequence on first boot after any DIMM change.

When will the PERC H730 controller battery and the eight 1.2 TB SAS drives need replacement?

The H730 RAID battery typically lasts three to five years before requiring replacement to preserve write-back cache, while the 10K SAS drives should be monitored via SMART and replaced pre-emptively once reallocated sector counts rise.
