DELL PowerEdge R730xd 12LFF 2x Xeon E5-2667 v4 3.2GHz 256GB DDR4 rack server

Dual Xeon E5-2667 v4 3.2GHz server

The DELL PowerEdge R730xd arrives as a 2U rack system populated with two eight-core Xeon E5-2667 v4 processors running at 3.2GHz and 256GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. It targets organisations that need dense 3.5-inch drive capacity in a compact rack footprint for databases, virtualisation hosts or backup repositories.

Twelve-bay chassis with PERC H730 controller

The 12LFF chassis accepts up to twelve 3.5-inch SATA or SAS drives which are not included, letting buyers choose capacity and redundancy to match the workload. A PERC H730 RAID controller manages the array, while dual 1100W power supplies and an iDRAC8 Enterprise licence provide redundant power and out-of-band management for remote deployment.

Sustained multi-threaded throughput

Under continuous load the twin 3.2GHz CPUs deliver steady multi-threaded performance for compute-heavy tasks such as SQL processing or container clusters. Installed memory sits at 256GB with a 768GB maximum, so memory-bound workloads can scale without replacing the platform, although the integrated graphics and single 10GbE plus 1GbE network card limit GPU acceleration and ultra-low-latency fabric needs.
