Dual 14-Core Xeon 2U Rack Server

This Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2683 v3 processors. Each CPU runs at 2.0 GHz with 14 cores and a 3.0 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 128 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory across eight 16 GB modules. It is built for virtualization, databases and high-performance computing nodes.

Suits dense storage and virtualization.

The chassis provides eight 2.5-inch drive bays populated with 2.4 TB 10K SAS disks on a PERC H730 controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Quad-port networking combines two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ links. Buyers who need GPU acceleration, more than two processor sockets or solid-state boot drives should evaluate other platforms.

1.5 TB maximum DDR4 capacity across 24 slots

The Intel C610 chipset supports up to 1.5 TB of DDR4 memory when all 24 DIMM slots are filled. The current 128 GB configuration leaves headroom for growth. Redundant 750 W platinum power supplies, iDRAC8 Enterprise remote management, rails and bezel complete the package.

Questions about this item

What CPUs and memory must I already have to populate the 24 DDR4 slots?

The server ships with two Xeon E5-2683 v3 14-core processors at 2.0 GHz and 128 GB of DDR4-2133 ECC memory across 8 modules, leaving 16 empty slots for expansion up to 1.5 TB.

Can my existing 6 Gb/s SAS drives work with the H730 controller and 12 Gb/s backplane?

Yes, the PERC H730 supports both 12 Gb/s and 6 Gb/s SAS/SATA drives, so older disks will operate at their native speed while the eight installed 2.4 TB 10K SAS drives run at 12 Gb/s.

How do I verify the iDRAC8 Enterprise and quad-port X520/I350 network card are functioning after setup?

Log into the iDRAC8 web interface to confirm remote management access, then check that all four ports — two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ — show link and activity LEDs in the network settings.
