Dual Xeon 22-core rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2699 v4 processors running at 2.2 GHz with 22 cores each. It ships with 512 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 16 modules and includes a PERC H730 storage controller with 1 GB cache. Ten 600 GB 10K SAS drives provide high-speed storage in the eight 2.5-inch bays.

Virtualisation and database hosts

This configuration suits organisations running virtualised workloads, databases, or high-performance computing tasks that benefit from 44 total cores and large memory capacity. The quad-port network daughter card adds two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ connections for flexible networking. Buyers who need more than 24 DIMM slots, GPU acceleration, or a different drive interface should evaluate other platforms.

512 GB DDR4 registered ECC memory

The installed 512 GB of DDR4 2400 MHz registered ECC memory across 16 slots is the key specification that determines fit. The system supports up to 1.5 TB total across 24 slots, allowing future expansion if workloads grow. Verify that your application and operating system can utilise this memory type and capacity before purchase.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 10 SAS drives into the 2.5-inch bays, and which step is often missed?

Slide each 600 GB drive into the front 2.5-inch bays until the latch clicks, then configure the desired RAID level in the PERC H730 BIOS before the OS sees any volumes.

Which component will need replacement first during long-term operation?

The 10 600 GB 10K SAS drives and the PERC H730 controller battery are the only field-replaceable parts with a defined service life.

What thermal or power limit appears first when both 22-core Xeons run at 3.6 GHz Turbo continuously?

The dual 750 W platinum power supplies set the ceiling; sustained turbo on both CPUs can draw enough power to trigger throttling before the cooling capacity is exceeded.
