Dual 14-Core Xeon 2U Server

This DELL PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server fitted with two Intel Xeon E5-2660 v4 processors, each running at 2.0 GHz with 14 cores. It ships with 64 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 24 slots and a PERC H730 storage controller. Two 800 GB SATA SSDs and dual 750 W platinum power supplies are included.

Suits virtualisation and database nodes.

The configuration suits midsize enterprises running virtual desktop infrastructure, databases or high-performance computing data nodes. Quad-port networking with two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports plus iDRAC 8 Enterprise remote management support dense deployments. Buyers who need GPU acceleration or more than two processors should look at a different platform.

24 DDR4 slots scale to 1.5 TB

The system provides 24 DDR4 memory slots with a maximum capacity of 1.5 TB, allowing significant expansion beyond the installed 64 GB. Eight 2.5-inch drive bays and the H730 controller support RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 for flexible storage layouts.

Questions about this item

How much power do the dual 750 watt platinum supplies draw when the R730 runs at full load all day?

Each supply is rated at 750 watts platinum efficiency; total draw depends on the workload you place on the two 14-core Xeon E5-2660 v4 CPUs and the PERC H730 controller.

Which cables and drives must I already have to populate the remaining six 2.5-inch bays?

The chassis accepts 2.5-inch SATA or SAS drives; the PERC H730 controller supports both interfaces, so you only need compatible drives and the caddies that fit the R730 front backplane.

Will my existing PCIe 2.0 expansion cards work in the R730 slots?

The R730 uses the Intel C610 chipset with PCIe 3.0 slots; PCIe 2.0 cards will function at their native speed when installed.
