Dual Xeon E5-2680 v3 2U Server

This Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2680 v3 processors. Each CPU runs at 2.5 GHz with 12 cores and a 3.3 GHz turbo frequency. The system ships with 512 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory across 16 modules. It targets enterprises running virtualisation, databases or high-performance computing workloads.

24-Bay SAS Storage Density

The chassis provides 24 hot-swap 2.5-inch bays populated with 300 GB 10K SAS drives and a PERC H730 controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Quad-port networking combines two 1 GbE and two 10 GbE SFP+ links. iDRAC8 Enterprise enables remote management. Buyers needing solid-state tiers, GPU compute or more than two sockets should evaluate alternative platforms.

512 GB DDR4 Registered ECC

Installed memory totals 512 GB using 16 registered ECC DIMMs at 2133 MHz. The platform supports up to 1.5 TB across 24 slots. Confirm the registered ECC requirement before adding modules, as unbuffered or non-ECC memory will not function.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 24 SAS drives and which step is most often missed?

Slide each 2.5" drive into the front hot-swap bays until the latch clicks; the step most often missed is pressing the orange release button fully so the carrier locks into the backplane.

What maintenance will the PERC H730 RAID controller need later?

The controller uses a 1GB battery-backed cache; plan to replace the battery module when iDRAC 8 reports a degraded cache state, typically after several years of continuous operation.

What thermal limit appears first when both Xeon E5-2680 v3 CPUs run at 3.3GHz Turbo under sustained load?

The 2U chassis relies on dual 750W platinum PSUs and system fans; sustained Turbo on all 24 cores usually hits the fan-speed ceiling before the CPU thermal throttle point.
