Dual 14-Core Xeon 2U Server

The DELL PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server built for midsize and large enterprise workloads such as data warehouses, e-commerce, VDI, databases and HPC data nodes. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2683 v3 processors, each running at 2.0 GHz with 14 cores and 3.0 GHz turbo capability. The system includes 128 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory across eight 16 GB modules.

Hot-Swap Bays and Rails Included

Eight 2.5-inch drive bays accept SAS or SATA drives and the PERC H730 1 GB controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through modes. Two 750 W platinum hot-swap power supplies provide redundant power. Ready Rails and a front bezel are included for standard rack mounting. Buyers who need more than 24 memory slots or more than two processors cannot expand this chassis further.

Sustained Multi-Threaded Throughput

Dual 14-core CPUs deliver 28 total cores for continuous parallel workloads such as virtualisation hosts and database engines. The H730 controller battery protects write cache during extended write-heavy operations. Quad-port networking with two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ links maintains steady data flow. iDRAC 8 Enterprise enables remote monitoring and management without interrupting the operating system.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm both Xeon E5-2683 v3 processors are active after installation?

The system BIOS and iDRAC8 Enterprise will each report two physical CPUs with 14 cores running at 2.0 GHz base and 3.0 GHz turbo.

What ships with the server and what must I source separately?

Included: 2U chassis with bezel and rails, 2 CPUs, 128 GB DDR4 in 8 DIMMs, PERC H730 1 GB controller with battery, 10 x 600 GB 10K SAS drives, X520/I350 quad-port network card, dual 750 W PSUs. No OS, hypervisor or SFP+ transceivers are supplied.

Which memory capacity should I choose if I plan to expand later?

The board has 24 DDR4 slots and supports up to 1.5 TB total. Starting with the installed 128 GB leaves 16 free slots for future registered ECC modules at 2133 MHz.
