Dell PowerEdge R730 2U dual Xeon server

This Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server built for midsize and large enterprises running data warehouses, e-commerce, VDI, databases and high-performance computing workloads. It ships new with two Intel Xeon E5-2699 v4 22-core processors at 2.2 GHz with 3.6 GHz turbo, 128 GB of DDR4 2400 MHz registered ECC memory across eight 16 GB modules and a PERC H730 1 GB storage controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

The system fits buyers needing a dense 2U platform with dual 22-core CPUs, 24 DIMM slots for up to 1.5 TB of DDR4 and eight 2.5-inch SAS/SATA drive trays plus quad-port networking with two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports. Buyers who need more than two processors, more than eight front drive bays or a different drive form factor should consider other platforms.

Deciding specification — 22-core dual Xeon

The defining specification is the pair of 22-core Xeon E5-2699 v4 CPUs delivering 44 total cores at 2.2 GHz base and 3.6 GHz turbo, which determines whether the server meets the multi-threaded performance required for virtualization, database and HPC node roles.

Questions about this item

What maintenance will the PERC H730 RAID controller battery need over time?

The PERC H730 includes a battery-backed write cache; the battery is a replaceable module that typically lasts several years and should be swapped when the iDRAC8 Enterprise interface reports a degraded state.

Which limit appears first when both 22-core Xeon E5-2699 v4 processors run at full load continuously?

Thermal headroom inside the 2U chassis becomes the limiting factor; the dual 750 W platinum power supplies and redundant hot-swap fan array are sized for the 2.2 GHz base and 3.6 GHz turbo frequencies.

How loud and how much power does the server draw when running 24/7 with both CPUs and 128 GB DDR4 active?

Dual 750 W platinum supplies and redundant hot-swap fans keep acoustics at typical rack levels while delivering up to 750 W per supply; actual draw tracks workload and iDRAC8 Enterprise reports real-time consumption.
