Dual Xeon 16-core 2U server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server built for enterprise workloads such as virtualization, databases and high-performance computing. Two Intel Xeon E5-2683 v4 processors run at 2.1 GHz with a 3.0 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 64 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 24 slots, supporting up to 1.5 TB total capacity.

Suits consolidation; not for GPU-heavy AI

This server suits IT teams consolidating multiple applications onto one platform with redundant 750 W power supplies and quad-port 1 GbE and 10 Gb SFP+ networking. Buyers who need GPU acceleration for AI training or larger local storage capacity should evaluate alternative configurations.

8 x 400 GB SATA SSD array

The PERC H730 1 GB controller manages eight 400 GB SATA solid-state drives in 2.5 inch bays with RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 support. This all-flash array determines whether the IOPS and capacity match your database or VDI deployment requirements.

Questions about this item

What rack space and power connections must be available for this 2U server with dual 750 Watt PSUs?

Reserve 2U of rack height and two PDU outlets; the chassis includes ready rails and two hot-swap 750 Watt platinum power supplies.

Can the PERC H730 controller manage the existing 400GB SATA SSDs together with larger SATA drives I may add later?

Yes, the H730 supports RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 and pass-through for mixed SATA capacities across the eight 2.5-inch bays.

How do I confirm the two Xeon E5-2683 v4 processors and 64GB DDR4 are recognised after installation?

Check the iDRAC8 Enterprise inventory or the BIOS POST screen; both should show two 16-core CPUs at 2.1 GHz and 64 GB of registered ECC DDR4.
