Dual 14-core Xeon 2U server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2680 v4 processors, each running at 2.4 GHz with 14 cores. It ships with 512 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 16 DIMM slots and eight 800 GB SATA solid-state drives managed by a PERC H730 RAID controller with 1 GB cache. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC8 Enterprise remote management come standard.

Virtualisation and database nodes.

This configuration suits organisations deploying virtual desktop infrastructure, database clusters or high-performance computing data nodes that benefit from high core counts and large memory capacity. The eight 2.5-inch drive bays and quad-port 1 GbE plus dual 10 GbE SFP+ networking support dense storage and throughput needs. Buyers who require GPU acceleration or more than two processor sockets should evaluate alternative platforms.

512 GB DDR4 registered ECC memory

The system arrives with 512 GB of DDR4 2400 MHz registered ECC memory installed in 16 of the 24 available DIMM slots, leaving room to expand toward the 1.5 TB maximum. Memory type and speed are fixed to DDR4; other generations are not compatible with the Intel C610 chipset and LGA 2011-3 sockets.

Questions about this item

What RAID levels does the PERC H730 1GB controller support and what is its maximum throughput?

The PERC H730 1GB controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 with pass-through mode and operates at 12Gb/s SAS/SATA speed.

What rail system and rack depth are required to mount this 2U server?

The server includes Dell Ready Rails for tool-less mounting in standard 4-post racks; verify your cabinet depth accommodates the 2U chassis.

In which memory slots should the 16×32GB DDR4 modules be installed for dual-CPU operation?

Populate all 24 slots evenly across both processors following the R730 memory installation guide; each CPU controls 12 slots in a specific sequence.
