Dual 12-core Xeon with 768GB DDR4

This Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2680 v3 processors running at 2.5GHz with 3.3GHz turbo, delivering 24 total cores and 768GB of registered ECC DDR4 memory across 24 slots for demanding enterprise workloads.

Suited for virtualization and database nodes

The configuration supports virtual desktop infrastructure, database clusters and compute-heavy tasks that benefit from high core count and large memory capacity; buyers needing GPU acceleration or single-thread performance beyond 3.3GHz should evaluate other options.

Eight 400GB SATA SSDs on PERC H730

Storage is provided by eight 400GB SATA solid-state drives managed by a Dell PERC H730 controller with 1GB cache supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through modes for flexible data protection.

Questions about this item

What motherboard socket must the chassis provide for the two Xeon E5-2680 v3 processors?

The server uses LGA 2011-3 sockets, one for each of the two installed 12-core Xeon CPUs.

Can the existing Dell PERC H730 controller manage the eight 400 GB SATA SSDs together with older mechanical drives?

The H730 supports both SAS and SATA, so the installed SSDs and additional SATA hard drives can share the same controller and RAID arrays such as RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 or 60.

How can I verify that all 768 GB of DDR4 memory is recognised after the server boots?

Check the iDRAC8 Enterprise interface or the BIOS memory map; both will show the full 768 GB across the 24 populated slots.
