Dual-socket Xeon server for virtualization

The PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server built for midsize and large enterprises running data warehouses, e-commerce platforms, virtual desktop infrastructure and high-performance computing tasks. Two Xeon E5-2620 v3 processors deliver 12 cores at 2.40 GHz with 3.2 GHz turbo for multi-threaded throughput.

128 GB registered ECC DDR4 across 24 slots

The system ships with 128 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory installed in eight 16 GB modules, leaving 16 slots open for expansion up to 1.5 TB total capacity. This memory configuration decides whether the server can hold your working set without swapping.

Tool-less rails and hot-swap bays simplify

Ready Rails and a front bezel are included for quick rack mounting, while eight 2.5-inch hot-swap drive bays and redundant 750 W power supplies allow component replacement without downtime. The PERC H730 controller battery must be seated correctly or RAID writes will fall back to write-through mode.

Questions about this item

What does the 2.4 GHz base clock with 3.2 GHz turbo mean for actual workloads?

The two Xeon E5-2620 v3 processors run at 2.4 GHz base and can boost to 3.2 GHz under load, giving 12 total cores and 24 threads for virtualisation, databases or HPC tasks.

What RAID levels does the PERC H730 controller support and what throughput does the 12 Gb/s SAS link provide?

The H730 handles RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 with its 1 GB cache; the 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA interface sets the maximum drive-side bandwidth.

What physical space and mounting hardware are required to install this 2U server?

The chassis occupies 2U of rack height and ships with ready rails and a front bezel for standard four-post rack mounting.
