24-Bay 2U Rack Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server with twenty-four 2.5-inch drive bays. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2683 v3 processors, each running fourteen cores at 2.0 GHz with a 3.0 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 64 GB of DDR4-2133 registered ECC memory across four 16 GB modules. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies and ready rails are included.

Suits storage-dense workloads.

This configuration suits midsize and large enterprises running data warehouses, e-commerce platforms, virtual desktop infrastructure, databases or high-performance computing data nodes. The twenty-four SAS/SATA bays and PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache support RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Buyers who need GPU acceleration or fibre-channel connectivity should look at other platforms.

Dual 14-core Xeon E5-2683 v3 CPUs

The single specification that decides fit is the processor pair: two 14-core Xeon E5-2683 v3 CPUs at 2.0 GHz base and 3.0 GHz turbo on LGA 2011-3 sockets. This delivers twenty-eight total cores and fifty-six threads for heavily threaded workloads. The board maximum is two processors, so no further CPU expansion is possible.
