Dual 10-core Xeon server for virtualization

The PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2660 v3 processors running at 2.6 GHz with 3.3 GHz turbo. Each CPU provides 10 cores for a total of 20 threads. The system ships with 64 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory across 24 slots, supporting up to 1.5 TB. It targets midsize and large enterprises running data warehouses, VDI, databases and high-performance computing workloads.

Verify rack space power

Confirm your rack can accommodate a 2U chassis and that you have rails compatible with the included Ready Rails kit. The unit requires two hot-swap 750 W platinum power supplies connected to redundant circuits. Network connectivity uses a quad-port daughter card with two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports, so ensure your switch has matching SFP+ transceivers and cabling. The PERC H730 controller manages SAS and SATA drives with 1 GB cache and battery backup.

Eight-bay SAS storage and remote management included

Eight 2.5-inch drive bays come populated with 600 GB 10K SAS drives connected to the H730 controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. The iDRAC 8 Enterprise module provides out-of-band remote management over a dedicated network port. Memory expansion uses the remaining 20 DDR4 slots for registered ECC modules. The front bezel is included for physical security and airflow management in the rack.

Questions about this item

What is included with the server and what must be purchased separately?

The system ships with two Xeon E5-2660 v3 processors, 64GB DDR4 memory, a PERC H730 controller with 1GB cache, eight 600GB 10K SAS drives, an X520/I350 quad-port network card, iDRAC8 Enterprise, two 750W power supplies, rails and a bezel. Additional drives or memory must be bought separately.

How do I choose between the installed 64GB and the maximum 1.5TB capacity?

The server has 24 DDR4 slots; 4 are populated with 16GB modules leaving 20 free slots. Start with the installed 64GB for light virtualization, then add matched registered ECC modules in sets of 4 or 8 to scale toward 1.5TB as workloads grow.

What does the 2.6GHz base clock mean for real-world throughput?

Each of the 20 cores runs at 2.6GHz with a 3.3GHz turbo, giving strong multi-thread performance for databases, VDI and HPC data nodes. Actual throughput depends on the workload and memory configuration, but the dual-socket design keeps all 20 cores fed by the 2133MHz DDR4 subsystem.
