Dual Xeon E5-2620 v3 2U Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server built for midsize and large enterprises running data warehouses, e-commerce platforms, virtual desktop infrastructure, databases or high-performance computing nodes. Two Intel Xeon E5-2620 v3 processors deliver twelve cores at 2.40 GHz with 3.2 GHz turbo. Seventy sixty-eight gigabytes of DDR4 registered ECC memory across twenty-four slots supports heavy multitasking.

768GB DDR4 upgrade path

The system ships with 768 GB installed in all twenty-four DIMM slots using 32 GB modules, leaving no free slots for simple expansion. Maximum supported capacity is 1.5 TB, so any increase requires replacing existing modules with higher-density DDR4 registered ECC sticks. The dual-socket LGA 2011-3 platform and Intel C610 chipset are already fully populated with the maximum two processors.

Eight-bay SAS storage and 10 GbE networking

Eight 2.5-inch bays hold 2.4 TB 10K SAS drives managed by a PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache and battery-backed RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through. A quad-port daughter card adds two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ links. Dual 750 W platinum hot-swap power supplies, iDRAC8 Enterprise, ready rails and a front bezel complete the package for immediate rack deployment.

Questions about this item

What rack-mount hardware is included with the 2U server?

The listing states that Ready Rails and a front bezel are included with the chassis.

How are the eight 2.4TB SAS drives installed, and what step is often missed?

Drives slide into the front 2.5-inch hot-swap bays; the PERC H730 controller must be configured for the desired RAID level before the array is initialised.

Which components will need replacement over the life of the server?

The eight 2.4TB 10K SAS hard drives and the PERC H730 controller battery are the primary field-replaceable items that wear with use.
