Dual Xeon 22-core 2U rack server for dense compute

The PowerEdge R730 delivers two Intel Xeon E5-2699 v4 processors at 2.2 GHz with 22 cores each and 128 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 24 slots. Eight 300 GB 10K SAS drives connect through a PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC8 Enterprise provide redundancy and remote management in a 2U chassis.

Teams needing maximum CPU cores and memory in 2U

This system fits workloads that demand high thread counts and large memory capacity such as virtualisation, databases and high-performance computing. The eight 2.5-inch bays are populated with SAS hard drives so buyers who require solid-state storage or more than eight drive bays should consider other configurations. The LGA 2011-3 platform limits future processor upgrades to the same generation.

44 total cores and 1.5 TB maximum memory capacity

With both sockets occupied by 22-core CPUs the server reaches 44 cores and 44 threads at 2.2 GHz base frequency with 3.6 GHz turbo. The 24 DIMM slots support up to 1.5 TB of DDR4 when fully populated. This ceiling determines whether the platform can scale with the intended workload.

Questions about this item

How much heat and power will the dual Xeon E5-2699 v4 processors and two 750 W PSUs generate under continuous load?

The server uses two Intel Xeon E5-2699 v4 CPUs with a base frequency of 2.2 GHz and a 3.6 GHz turbo, backed by dual 750 W Platinum power supplies for redundant hot-swap operation.

Which cables and drives must I already own to populate the eight 2.5-inch bays behind the PERC H730 controller?

The system ships with eight Dell Enterprise 300 GB 10 K SAS drives installed; the H730 controller supports both SAS and SATA drives in the 2.5-inch hot-swap bays.

Will my existing DDR4 registered ECC modules work alongside the installed 128 GB across the 24 memory slots?

The board has 24 DDR4 slots running at 2400 MHz and currently holds eight 16 GB registered ECC modules, leaving 16 slots free for expansion up to 1.5 TB.
