Dual 14-core Xeon rack server

The PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack system built for midsize and large enterprise workloads. Two Intel Xeon E5-2680 v4 processors deliver 28 cores at 2.4 GHz with 3.3 GHz turbo. 512 GB of DDR4 2400 MHz registered ECC memory across 16 modules supports virtualisation, databases and high-performance computing nodes.

PERC H730 controller and 8 SAS drives

The Dell PERC H730 1 GB mini controller enables RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. Eight 2.4 TB 10K SAS 12 Gb/s 2.5-inch drives provide high-capacity rotational storage. The quad-port network daughter card adds two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ connections for flexible fabric integration.

Redundant platinum power and remote management

Dual 750 W platinum hot-swap power supplies maintain uptime during module replacement. iDRAC 8 Enterprise gives full out-of-band control over KVM, power cycling and firmware updates. Included ready rails and front bezel simplify rack installation, while 24 DIMM slots allow expansion to 1.5 TB total memory.

Questions about this item

How long will the PERC H730 controller battery last before it needs replacement?

The PERC H730 includes a battery-backed write cache; the battery typically lasts several years and can be swapped without removing the controller.

Which component reaches its limit first when the server runs at full load continuously?

The two Xeon E5-2680 v4 processors hit their thermal ceiling first; the 750 W platinum power supplies and chassis airflow are designed around that thermal envelope.

What are the noise and heat levels when the system operates 24/7 in a rack?

Dual 750 W platinum supplies and redundant hot-swap fans keep the 2U chassis within spec, but sustained load raises fan speed to a noticeable level in quiet rooms.
