Dual Xeon 18-Core Server for Virtualisation

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2699 v3 processors, each delivering 18 cores at 2.3 GHz with a 3.6 GHz turbo frequency. It ships with 128 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 24 slots, supporting up to 1.5 TB total capacity. This configuration targets midsize and large enterprises running data warehouses, VDI, databases or high-performance computing workloads.

Redundant Platinum Power Supplies and Cooling

Two hot-swap 750 Watt platinum-efficiency power supplies provide full redundancy for continuous operation. The 2U chassis uses forced-air cooling designed for dense 2.5-inch drive bays and dual high-core-count CPUs. Thermal management scales with workload intensity across the 24 DIMM slots and eight drive positions without requiring liquid cooling or external airflow assistance.

Eight-Bay Storage and Quad-Port Networking

The front panel holds eight 2.5-inch bays populated with 400 GB SATA SSDs managed by a PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. A quad-port network daughter card adds two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ connections for flexible fabric integration. iDRAC 8 Enterprise enables remote management, while included ready rails and a front bezel simplify rack installation and physical security.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 2.5" SATA SSDs into the 8-bay front drive cage and which step is often missed?

Slide each drive into a bay until the carrier latch clicks, then verify the PERC H730 controller detects all 8x 400GB SSDs in the RAID BIOS before installing the OS.

Which components will need replacement first during long-term operation?

The two 750W Platinum PSUs and the PERC H730 controller battery are the primary field-replaceable units; fans and SSDs follow typical server refresh cycles.

What thermal or power limit appears first when both 18-core Xeons run at 3.6GHz turbo under sustained load?

The 750W power supply rating and 2U chassis airflow set the practical ceiling before CPU throttling engages.
