Dual Xeon 28-core 2U server

The PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server built for midsize and large enterprises running data warehouses, e-commerce platforms, virtual desktop infrastructure, databases or high-performance computing workloads. Two Intel Xeon E5-2683 v3 processors deliver 28 cores at 2.0 GHz with 3.0 GHz turbo for heavy multi-threaded tasks.

768 GB DDR4 ECC memory

The system ships with 768 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory across 24 slots, expandable to 1.5 TB. This capacity decides whether the server fits memory-intensive virtualization or in-memory database roles without immediate upgrades.

PERC H730 1 GB RAID controller

The Dell PERC H730 mini controller provides 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA connectivity with battery-backed cache and supports RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 plus pass-through. Two 400 GB SATA SSDs, quad-port 1 GbE/10 GbE networking, iDRAC8 Enterprise, dual 750 W platinum PSUs, rails and bezel complete the bundle.

Questions about this item

What does the 2.0 GHz base clock on the dual 14-core Xeons deliver in a real workload?

Two E5-2683 v3 processors run at 2.0 GHz base with 3.0 GHz turbo across 28 total cores, giving high multi-thread throughput for virtualisation, databases and HPC data-node tasks.

How does the PERC H730 controller and SATA SSD interface limit practical drive speed?

The H730 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA controller manages RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60, while the installed 400 GB SSDs connect over SATA 6 Gb/s, capping sequential transfers at the SATA link rate.

What physical space and mounting hardware does the 2U server need?

The chassis is a 2U rack unit supplied with ready rails and a front bezel for direct installation into a standard 4-post rack cabinet.
