Dual 14-core Xeon density

The PowerEdge R730xd fits two Intel Xeon E5-2683 v3 processors at 2.0 GHz, each with 14 cores, into a 2U rack chassis. Fifty-six threads and 512 GB of registered ECC DDR4 give virtualisation hosts and database nodes the core count and memory capacity they need without spreading the workload across extra servers.

Sustained multi-thread throughput

With both CPUs installed the system can keep all twenty-eight cores per socket active under continuous load, and the H730 controller backs the twelve 6 TB enterprise drives with a 1 GB cache for steady RAID 5, 6 or 10 write performance. The quad-port X520/I350 daughter card supplies two 10 Gb SFP+ and two 1 GbE links so storage traffic and client connections stay separated on the wire.

Platinum power and remote control

Dual 750 W platinum-efficiency supplies share the load and keep running if one unit fails, while iDRAC 8 Enterprise lets administrators monitor thermals, power draw and firmware health from anywhere. Ready rails and the front bezel are included so the chassis slides into a standard rack and presents a clean face without extra parts.

Questions about this item

How much power do the dual 750-watt platinum supplies draw when the 14-core Xeons and 12 drives run continuously?

Each supply is rated at 750 watts platinum efficiency; actual draw depends on workload but the redundant pair shares the load so neither runs at full capacity.

Which rails and cabling must I already have to mount this 2U chassis in a standard rack?

Ready Rails and a front bezel are included; you only need a four-post rack with square or threaded holes and standard IEC C13 power cords for the two supplies.

Will my existing SATA SSDs and SAS HDDs work with the PERC H730 controller in this server?

The H730 supports both SATA and SAS drives; the 12 installed 6 TB SATA disks use the same backplane, so additional SATA or SAS drives can be added without changing cables.
