Dual Xeon E5-2640 v3 rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2640 v3 processors running at 2.6 GHz with 3.4 GHz turbo. It ships with 128 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory across eight modules. The system includes a PERC H730 1 GB storage controller with battery backup supporting RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Eight 1.2 TB 10K SAS drives populate the 2.5-inch bays. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC 8 Enterprise provide redundancy and remote management.

Virtualisation hosts and database nodes

This server suits organisations running virtualised workloads, databases or high-performance computing tasks that benefit from 16 physical cores and a large memory footprint. The quad-port network daughter card delivers two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ connections for flexible fabric integration. Buyers who need more than 1.5 TB of RAM or more than two sockets should evaluate larger platforms. The 2.5-inch drive bays limit raw capacity compared with 3.5-inch chassis designs.

1.5 TB maximum DDR4 capacity

The platform supports up to 1.5 TB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 24 DIMM slots. The current 128 GB configuration leaves 16 slots free for future expansion. This ceiling determines whether the R730 can accommodate projected dataset growth or consolidation ratios without a hardware change.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 8-core or a different core count for the Xeon E5-2640 v3?

This unit ships with two 8-core Xeon E5-2640 v3 processors at 2.6GHz, reaching 3.4GHz Turbo. The board supports a maximum of two processors, so the 16 total cores are fixed for this configuration.

What does 128GB DDR4 at 2133MHz mean for my workloads?

The system includes 128GB of registered ECC DDR4-2133 across eight 16GB modules, leaving 16 of 24 slots free to expand up to 1.5TB for larger virtualisation or database footprints.

What RAID levels does the PERC H730 1GB controller support with these 1.2TB SAS drives?

The H730 12Gb/s SAS/SATA controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through, so the eight 1.2TB 10K SAS drives can be arranged for capacity, speed or redundancy as needed.
