Dual 22-core Xeon density

The PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server built around two Intel Xeon E5-2699 v4 processors running at 2.2 GHz with a 3.6 GHz turbo. Twenty-two cores per socket and 64 GB of registered ECC DDR4 memory give midsize and large enterprises a compact platform for virtualisation, databases and high-performance computing data nodes.

PERC H730 with twelve 4 TB drives

A Dell PERC H730 1 GB controller manages twelve 3.5-inch 7.2 K SATA drives in RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 or 60 plus pass-through mode. The onboard X520/I350 daughter card adds two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports, while iDRAC 8 Enterprise provides dedicated remote management.

Confirm rack depth and network cabling

The chassis requires a standard 2U rack space and includes ready rails and a front bezel. Verify that your cabinet depth accommodates the full server length and that you have SFP+ transceivers or direct-attach cables for the 10 Gb uplinks. Power is supplied by two hot-swap 750 W platinum units, so ensure your PDU delivers matching IEC connectors.

Questions about this item

What type of hard drives will I need when the 12 installed 4TB 7.2K SATA drives eventually need replacing?

The server takes 3.5-inch SATA drives; the installed units are 4TB 7.2K models, so any 3.5-inch SATA HDD or SSD of compatible capacity can be used as a replacement.

Which component will hit its ceiling first when the system runs at full load for extended periods?

With both CPUs already at the maximum of two and memory filled to 64GB of a 1.5TB limit, the 12 drive bays are the first hard constraint you will reach under sustained I/O-heavy workloads.

How loud and hot does the R730xd get when it runs 24/7 with both 22-core Xeons and all 12 drives spinning?

Dual 750W Platinum supplies and redundant hot-swap fans keep the 2U chassis within spec, but rack-mount servers of this class typically produce noticeable fan noise and exhaust significant heat under continuous full load.
