Dual 22-Core Xeon 2U Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server built for midsize and large enterprise workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2699 v4 processors running at 2.2 GHz with a 3.6 GHz turbo frequency. Each CPU delivers 22 cores, providing dense compute capacity for virtualisation, databases and high-performance computing tasks. The system includes 64 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 24 slots.

Storage-Focused Buyers vs Network-Only Needs

This server suits organisations that need extensive local storage in a compact form factor. Twelve 3.5-inch SAS/SATA drive trays and the PERC H730 RAID controller with 1 GB cache support multiple RAID levels for data protection. Buyers who only require high-speed networking without local disk capacity should consider alternatives, as the chassis is optimised for drive density rather than pure compute expansion.

Twelve 3.5-Inch Drive Bays with H730 RAID

The defining specification is the twelve 3.5-inch hot-swap trays paired with the Dell PERC H730 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA controller. This combination determines whether the platform can meet your storage volume and redundancy requirements. The controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode, while the quad-port network daughter card adds two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ connections.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and which parts must be purchased separately?

The server ships with two Xeon E5-2699 v4 processors, 64GB DDR4 memory, H730 controller, 12x 3.5" drive trays, X520/I350 quad-port network card, iDRAC8 Enterprise, two 750W PSUs, bezel and rails. No 3.5" hard drives or SSDs are installed.

How do I choose between the available configurations for this R730xd?

This listing defines a single configuration: dual 22-core CPUs at 2.2GHz, 64GB across four 16GB modules, H730 with 1GB cache, and 12 hot-swap 3.5" bays. Select this SKU when you need maximum core count and dense 3.5" storage in 2U.

What does the 2.2GHz figure mean once the server is running real workloads?

Each of the two E5-2699 v4 CPUs runs at a 2.2GHz base frequency with 22 cores and can reach 3.6GHz turbo under load, delivering 44 total threads for databases, virtualization or HPC tasks.
