Dual 14-core Xeon server for enterprise workloads

The PowerEdge R730 fits two Xeon E5-2660 v4 processors running at 2.0 GHz with 14 cores each, delivering 28 total cores for virtualization, databases and high-performance computing. Sixty-four gigabytes of DDR4 registered ECC memory across four 16 GB modules provide a stable base for memory-intensive applications.

Sustained throughput from SAS storage

Ten 600 GB 10K SAS drives connect through the PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache and battery backup, supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 for continuous read/write performance. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies and hot-swap design keep the system running during drive or power-module replacement.

Twelve-gigabit SAS interface

The 12 Gb/s SAS backplane limits each drive to that bandwidth, while the eight-bay chassis is populated with ten drives using the available slots. Network connectivity uses a quad-port daughter card with two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports, and iDRAC 8 Enterprise handles remote management independently of the operating system.

Questions about this item

How much power do the dual 750 W platinum supplies draw under continuous load?

Each supply is rated at 750 W with platinum efficiency; the system ships with two for redundant hot-swap operation.

What cabling and backplane are required to use all ten 600 GB SAS drives?

The 2.5-inch drive bays and PERC H730 controller support 12 Gb/s SAS; the server includes the backplane and cables for the installed drives.

Will the LGA 2011-3 Xeon E5-2660 v4 CPUs limit DDR4 speed when paired with older registered ECC modules?

The installed 64 GB runs at 2400 MHz; the platform supports up to 1.5 TB across 24 DDR4 slots.
