Dual-socket Xeon 22-core server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack-mount server system fitted with two Intel Xeon E5-2699 v4 processors. Each CPU delivers 22 cores at 2.2 GHz with a 3.6 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 256 GB of DDR4 2400 MHz registered ECC memory across eight 32 GB modules. A PERC H730 1 GB RAID controller manages up to eight 2.5-inch SATA or SAS drive bays. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC 8 Enterprise remote management complete the platform.

Virtualisation hosts needing high thread density

This server suits workloads that benefit from 44 total cores and large memory capacity, such as virtual desktop infrastructure, database nodes or high-performance computing data tasks. The eight-bay 2.5-inch chassis and quad-port 1 GbE and 10 Gb SFP+ networking support dense storage and connectivity. Organisations requiring more than two sockets, greater per-socket core counts or a different drive form factor should evaluate other platforms.

44 cores and 256 GB DDR4 registered ECC

The defining specification is the combined 44 execution threads backed by 256 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory. This core-and-memory pairing determines whether the R730 can handle the intended virtualisation density, database size or compute throughput. Buyers should match this capacity against their workload requirements before deployment.

Questions about this item

Does the 12Gb/s SAS controller cap drive throughput at 12Gb/s per port?

The PERC H730 runs at 12Gb/s per SAS lane, so each attached drive is limited to that link speed.

What physical space and rails are required to mount this 2U chassis?

It occupies 2U of rack height and ships with Ready Rails for square-hole or round-hole cabinets.

How are the CPUs and memory installed, and what step is often missed?

Both Xeon E5-2699 v4 processors are pre-installed; the 256GB DDR4 ECC RDIMMs fill 8 of 24 slots — verify each module clicks fully into its socket.
