Dual 22-core Xeon server for dense compute

The Dell PowerEdge R730 arrives with two Xeon E5-2699 v4 processors running at 2.2 GHz, each presenting 22 cores and 55 MB cache. 512 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory is installed across the system board. The 8 SFF drive bays accept 2.5-inch SATA or SAS media, while a PERC H730 RAID controller manages the storage layer. Integrated graphics and an Intel I350/X540 quad-port network card providing two 10 GbE and two 1 GbE links complete the baseline configuration.

Rack-ready chassis with flexible storage

The 2U rackmount enclosure measures 36 by 24 by 10 inches and weighs 40 pounds, sliding into standard cabinets without special rails. Eight hot-plug bays let operators populate only the capacity needed, leaving empty slots for future expansion. Dual 495 W power supplies share the load and provide redundancy. The iDRAC8 Enterprise licence gives full out-of-band access for BIOS updates, power cycling and console redirection from any network-attached workstation.

Redundant power and updated firmware keep thermals

Two 495 W units operate in parallel, so a single supply failure does not interrupt service. Firmware and BIOS are brought to the latest stable revision before dispatch, ensuring fan curves and thermal thresholds reflect Dell's current profiles. Under typical mixed workloads the system draws well within the redundant supply budget, and the integrated fan wall maintains component temperatures without excessive acoustic output.

Questions about this item

How far can the 2.2 GHz, 22-core Xeon E5-2699 v4 CPUs scale before thermal limits throttle sustained workloads?

The dual 495 W power supplies and 12th-generation cooling design are built to handle both processors at full load continuously.

What noise and heat levels should be expected when the server runs 24/7 with both 495 W supplies active?

Dual 495 W supplies and 12th-gen thermal engineering keep acoustics and temperatures within data-centre norms for a 2U rack chassis.

Which drive trays and cabling are required to populate the eight 2.5-inch bays with SAS or SATA drives?

The 8SFF chassis includes backplane and cabling for eight 2.5-inch SAS/SATA drives; trays are needed for each drive.
