Dual Xeon 12-core server for enterprise workloads

The PowerEdge R730 fits into a 2U rack space and carries two Intel Xeon E5-2680 v3 processors, each running at 2.5 GHz with a 3.3 GHz turbo frequency. Together they provide 24 cores for virtualization, database or high-performance computing tasks. The system ships with 128 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory across eight 16 GB modules, leaving 16 of the 24 DIMM slots free for future expansion up to 1.5 TB.

Redundant 750 W platinum supplies handle thermals

Two hot-swap 750 watt platinum-efficiency power supplies deliver redundant power while the chassis fans cool the dual-socket board and ten drive bays. The Intel C610 chipset manages I/O without adding significant heat. Under typical loads the power draw stays within the supply rating and the redundant design keeps the server running if one unit fails.

PERC H730 controller and quad-port networking

The Dell PERC H730 1 GB controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through modes, backed by a battery to protect cached writes. Ten 600 GB 10 K SAS drives fill the 2.5 inch bays, providing 6 TB of raw storage. An Intel X520/I350 daughter card adds two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports, while iDRAC 8 Enterprise gives full remote management. Ready Rails and a front bezel are included for immediate rack mounting.

Questions about this item

How do I install the Dell PERC H730 RAID controller and what step is often missed?

The PERC H730 mini controller plugs into the dedicated internal storage slot on the system board. The step often missed is connecting the battery backup cable to the controller so write-back caching stays protected during power loss.

What maintenance will the 600 GB 10K SAS drives need over time?

The eight 600 GB 10K SAS drives are mechanical; plan to monitor SMART health via the PERC H730 or iDRAC 8 Enterprise and replace any drive that reports predictive failure or exceeds the rated workload limit.

What limit appears first when both Xeon E5-2680 v3 CPUs run at 3.3 GHz turbo continuously?

The two 750 W platinum power supplies set the sustained ceiling; running both 12-core processors at 3.3 GHz turbo can draw enough power to hit the PSU capacity before thermal throttling becomes the bottleneck.
