Dual 22-core Xeon server for virtualisation

This 2U rack system ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2699 v4 processors running at 2.2 GHz with 3.6 GHz turbo. Twenty-four 32 GB DDR4 registered ECC modules provide 768 GB of memory across 24 slots, expandable to 1.5 TB. The platform targets midsize and large enterprises running data warehouses, VDI, databases and HPC data nodes.

PERC H730 controller and quad-port networking

The Dell PERC H730 1 GB controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through modes for the eight 300 GB 10K SAS drives. An Intel X520/I350 daughter card adds two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports. iDRAC 8 Enterprise enables full remote management. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies and sliding rails with bezel complete the bundle.

Tool-less rails simplify rack mounting.

The included Ready Rails allow tool-less installation in standard 4-post racks. Hot-swap drive bays and redundant power supplies let you replace components without downtime. Dense 2U height and 24 DIMM slots mean careful cable management is required to maintain airflow. iDRAC setup requires a dedicated network drop and initial configuration via BIOS or USB.

Questions about this item

How often will the PERC H730 controller battery need replacement?

The PERC H730 includes a battery-backed cache module; plan to swap the battery every three to five years to keep write-back caching protected during power loss.

What limits sustained throughput on the eight 300 GB SAS drives?

Eight 10 K 2.5-inch SAS drives on a 12 Gb/s H730 controller hit the spindle-speed IOPS ceiling before the controller or bus saturates.

How loud and hot does the 2U chassis run with dual 22-core Xeons at full load?

Dual 2.2 GHz 22-core CPUs and two 750 W platinum PSUs push the 2U rack unit into high fan-speed territory; expect data-centre noise levels and significant exhaust heat.
