Rack Server 2U Dual Xeon

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server built for midsize and large enterprise workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2640 v3 processors, each running at 2.6 GHz with eight cores and a 3.4 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 768 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 24 slots and a PERC H730 storage controller with battery backup.

Virtualisation and database hosts

This configuration suits teams running virtual desktop infrastructure, databases, data warehousing or high-performance computing nodes. The dual-processor layout, large memory capacity and 10 GbE SFP+ networking support dense virtualisation and I/O-heavy applications. Buyers who need more than two sockets, GPU accelerator density or single-thread speeds above 3.4 GHz should evaluate other platforms.

Ten 600 GB 10K SAS drives

Storage is provided by ten enterprise 600 GB 10K SAS drives connected to the H730 controller, which supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through. The 2.5-inch drive bays and 12 Gb/s SAS interface determine the upgrade path for capacity or performance. Confirm the drive count and controller RAID level match your redundancy and throughput requirements before purchase.
