Dual 18-core Xeon rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2699 v3 processors. Each CPU delivers 18 cores at 2.3 GHz with a 3.6 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 128 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory across 24 slots. It targets midsize and large enterprises running databases, virtual desktop infrastructure or high-performance computing workloads.

Check CPU socket and storage bays

Your existing infrastructure must support LGA 2011-3 processors and the Intel C610 chipset. The chassis provides eight 2.5-inch drive bays using SATA or SAS interfaces connected to the PERC H730 controller. Verify that your rack accepts 2U height and that network uplinks can use the installed quad-port 1 GbE and 10 Gb SFP+ daughter card. iDRAC 8 Enterprise requires a dedicated management network connection.

Dual 750 W platinum supplies handle load

Two hot-swap 750 watt platinum power supplies provide redundancy for the dual-processor configuration. The PERC H730 controller includes a battery-backed cache for data protection during power events. Enterprise-class 800 GB SATA SSDs generate less heat than mechanical drives under sustained I/O. Fan speeds scale with CPU and memory utilisation to maintain thermal limits in the 2U form factor.

Questions about this item

Does the server ship with rails, a bezel and both power supplies, or must I order them separately?

The unit includes ready rails, a front bezel and two 750 W hot-swap power supplies; no extra parts are needed for basic operation.

Should I choose the 128 GB configuration or plan to populate all 24 DIMM slots up to the 1.5 TB maximum?

128 GB is installed as eight 16 GB DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC modules, leaving 16 slots free for future expansion to 1.5 TB.

What throughput can I expect from the two 800 GB SSDs behind the H730 controller in a RAID 1 array?

The H730 1 GB cache controller manages the 6 Gb/s SATA SSDs in RAID 1, delivering read speeds suited to database and virtualization workloads.
