Dual Xeon 14-core 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2683 v3 processors, each running at 2.0 GHz with 14 cores. It ships with 512 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory installed across 16 DIMM slots and includes a PERC H730 storage controller with battery-backed cache. Two 400 GB SATA SSDs and quad-port networking are also factory-fitted.

Suited for virtualisation and database nodes

This configuration serves midsize and large enterprise workloads such as virtual desktop infrastructure, database hosting and high-performance computing data nodes. The dual-socket design and large memory capacity support heavy consolidation. Buyers who need more than 512 GB of memory, additional drive bays beyond the eight 2.5-inch slots, or a different storage controller should evaluate other options.

512 GB DDR4 registered ECC memory

The installed memory totals 512 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC modules, a figure that determines how many virtual machines or how large a dataset the server can hold in RAM. The board offers 24 slots and supports up to 1.5 TB, so expansion is possible if the application demands it. Verify that your workload fits within the current capacity before purchasing.

Questions about this item

What rack size and rails does the 2U PowerEdge R730 need for mounting?

The server is a 2U rack unit and ships with ready rails for installation in a standard rack cabinet.

How are the two Xeon E5-2683 v3 processors and 512GB DDR4 memory installed, and what step is often missed?

Both processors are pre-installed in the two LGA 2011-3 sockets; the 512GB DDR4 registered ECC memory occupies 16 of the 24 slots — verify all modules are fully seated.

Which components in this R730 will need replacement first — the PERC H730 battery, the 400GB SSDs, or the 750W power supplies?

The PERC H730 controller battery typically requires replacement after several years; the 400GB SATA SSDs and redundant 750W supplies are hot-swappable for later service.
