Dual Xeon E5-2683 v3 2U server

This 2U rack server ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2683 v3 processors, each running at 2.0 GHz with 14 cores and a 3.0 GHz turbo. It includes 768 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory across 24 slots and a Dell PERC H730 1 GB controller managing eight 1.2 TB 10K SAS drives. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC8 Enterprise remote management come standard.

Suits virtualisation hosts and database nodes.

The dual 14-core layout and large memory capacity fit virtual desktop infrastructure, database servers and high-performance computing data nodes. The quad-port network card adds two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ links. Buyers who need GPU acceleration or single-thread frequency above 3.0 GHz should look at a different platform.

Eight 1.2 TB 10K SAS drives on PERC H730

Storage is provided by eight 2.5-inch 1.2 TB 10K SAS hard drives connected to the PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache. The controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through modes. This array delivers high-throughput capacity for enterprise workloads that rely on spinning media.

Questions about this item

What rack space and power connections must I already have for this 2U server with dual 750 W supplies?

Reserve 2U of rack height and provide two IEC C13/C14 feeds; the unit includes ready rails for standard square-hole or threaded racks.

Will the PERC H730 controller and SAS backplane accept the 3.5-inch SATA drives I currently use?

The 2.5-inch SAS bays and H730 controller support SAS and SATA protocols, but 3.5-inch drives will not physically fit the 2.5-inch carriers.

How can I confirm the 768 GB of DDR4-2133 ECC memory is fully recognised after installation?

Check the iDRAC8 Enterprise inventory or the BIOS memory map — both should show 24 populated slots totalling 768 GB at 2133 MHz.
