Dual 18-core Xeon server for enterprise workloads

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2699 v3 processors running at 2.3 GHz with 18 cores each and a 3.6 GHz turbo frequency. It includes 128 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory across eight 16 GB modules. The system targets midsize and large enterprises running data warehouses, e-commerce platforms, virtual desktop infrastructure, databases and high-performance computing data nodes.

Check rack space power and network compatibility

Verify that your rack can accommodate a 2U chassis and that you have two available power circuits for the dual 750 W platinum-efficiency hot-swap supplies. Confirm that your network infrastructure supports the installed quad-port daughter card providing two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ connections. Ensure your storage topology can integrate with the PERC H730 controller managing ten 600 GB 10K SAS drives in 2.5 inch bays.

Integrates with existing SAS storage and remote

The server uses the Dell PERC H730 1 GB controller supporting RAID 0 1 5 6 10 50 60 and pass-through modes for the ten installed SAS drives. iDRAC 8 Enterprise provides out-of-band remote management without requiring a dedicated monitor or keyboard. Ready rails and a front bezel are included for immediate rack mounting. The 24 DIMM slots support expansion up to 1.5 TB of DDR4 memory when workloads grow.
