Dual Xeon E5-2683 v4 16-Core Compute

This 2U rack server delivers 32 physical cores at 2.1 GHz with 3.0 GHz turbo for midsize and large enterprise workloads such as data warehousing, VDI, databases and HPC data nodes. It ships new with 512 GB of registered ECC DDR4 across 24 slots, leaving headroom to the 1.5 TB maximum. The Intel C610 chipset and dual LGA 2011-3 sockets support the installed processor pair at the platform limit.

PERC H730 RAID and Quad-Port Networking

The included PERC H730 1 GB controller adds hardware RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through across eight 2.5-inch SAS/SATA trays. Battery-backed cache protects in-flight writes during power loss. A daughter card supplies two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports for flexible LAN and storage networking. iDRAC 8 Enterprise enables full remote management without an operating system.

512 GB Memory and Eight-Bay Storage Headroom

Fifty-twelve gigabytes of DDR4-2400 handles large virtualisation clusters and in-memory databases; the 24-slot design allows growth to 1.5 TB when workloads demand more capacity. Eight front trays accept SAS or SATA drives but no drives are installed, so buyers who need immediate capacity must add them. Dual 750 W platinum supplies provide redundant power for the configured components.

Questions about this item

How often will the PERC H730 controller battery need replacing?

The PERC H730 1GB controller includes a battery-backed write cache; plan to replace the battery module every 3 to 5 years to maintain RAID cache protection.

Which resource hits its ceiling first when the dual Xeon E5-2683 v4 CPUs run at full load continuously?

The 24 DDR4 slots max out at 1.5 TB, so memory capacity is the first hard limit before the 16-core processors saturate.

What is the typical power draw and heat output with both 750 W platinum PSUs running 24/7?

Each 750 W platinum supply delivers up to 750 W; combined they provide redundant 750 W capacity with high efficiency, keeping heat proportional to actual load.
