Dual Xeon 28-core server

The Dell PowerEdge R730XD is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2680 V4 processors delivering 28 cores and 56 threads. It ships with 64 GB of DDR4 memory across four 16 GB modules and includes three 6 TB 3.5-inch SAS hard drives. A PERC H730 12 Gbps RAID controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60, and a 750 W redundant power supply is fitted.

Suits dense storage workloads

This configuration suits buyers who need twelve hot-plug 3.5-inch drive bays for large-capacity SAS or SATA drives and hardware RAID. It also provides up to six PCIe 3.0 slots plus a dedicated RAID slot for additional controllers or networking cards. Buyers who require more than 64 GB of memory out of the box, or who need 10 GbE networking included, should look at a different configuration.

28 cores and 56 threads

The dual Xeon E5-2680 V4 CPUs provide 28 cores and 56 threads, which is the specification that determines whether this server can handle the intended multi-threaded workload. Memory can be expanded to 1536 GB across 24 DIMM slots, and the chassis accepts up to twelve 3.5-inch drives.

Questions about this item

How do I install the second Xeon E5-2680 V4 processor and which step is often missed?

Align the processor notches with the socket keys, lower the retention lever fully, then apply thermal paste before mounting the heatsink; the step often missed is removing the protective socket cover on the second CPU socket.

Which components will need replacement first during long-term operation?

The 750W redundant power supplies and SAS drives are the primary field-replaceable units; fans and the iDRAC8 vFlash media card may also require replacement over time.

What thermal or power limit appears first when the 28 cores run at full load continuously?

The dual 750W power supplies set the sustained power ceiling; if total draw exceeds their rated output, the system will throttle the Xeon processors to stay within the power envelope.
