Dual Xeon E5-2660 v3 compute

The PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server built for midsize and large enterprise workloads such as databases, virtual desktop infrastructure and high-performance computing. Two Intel Xeon E5-2660 v3 processors deliver 20 cores at 2.6 GHz with 3.3 GHz turbo capability. 768 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 24 slots supports memory-intensive applications.

8-bay SAS storage with H730 RAID

Eight 2.5-inch drive bays hold 2.4 TB 10K SAS drives connected to a PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache. The controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. A quad-port network daughter card adds two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ connections. iDRAC 8 Enterprise provides remote management. The system accepts up to 1.5 TB total memory.

Dual 750 W platinum power supplies

Redundant hot-swap 750 watt platinum-efficiency power supplies maintain uptime during a module failure. The 2U chassis includes ready rails and a front bezel for standard rack installation. Condition: new.

Questions about this item

How much DDR4 memory can the R730 take before the 24 slots are full?

The system supports up to 1.5TB across its 24 DDR4 slots, so 768GB installed leaves room for another 768GB.

What noise and heat should I expect from the dual 750W Platinum supplies running continuously?

Dual 750W Platinum supplies share the load, keeping fan speeds lower than a single unit would need, so the 2U chassis stays within typical rack thermal limits.

Which SFP+ modules or cables must I already have to use the X520 10Gb ports?

The daughter card provides two 10Gb SFP+ ports; you need compatible SFP+ transceivers or direct-attach cables for the links you plan to run.
