Dual 18-core Xeon server for data-intensive

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack system built around two Intel Xeon E5-2699 v3 processors, each running at 2.30 GHz with 18 cores and 3.6 GHz turbo. It ships with 512 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory across 16 modules, leaving eight of the 24 slots free for expansion up to 1.5 TB total capacity.

Redundant 750 W platinum power supplies manage

Dual hot-swap 750 watt platinum-efficiency power supplies provide N+N redundancy, allowing the server to maintain operation if one unit fails. The 2U chassis uses front-to-back airflow across the 24 drive bays and dual CPUs, while the H730 controller battery protects cached writes during unexpected power loss.

Quad-port networking and remote management

The integrated Intel X520/I350 daughter card delivers two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports for flexible fabric connectivity. iDRAC 8 Enterprise enables out-of-band hardware control, virtual console and lifecycle automation without an operating system. Ready Rails and a front bezel are included for immediate rack mounting.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 24 DDR4 memory modules across the 24 slots without leaving gaps?

Populate all 24 slots with the 16x 32GB registered ECC DDR4 2133MHz modules supplied; the remaining 8 slots stay empty but must keep their blanks installed for correct airflow.

When will the PERC H730 controller battery need replacement?

The 1GB cache battery typically lasts 3 to 5 years; replace it when iDRAC 8 Enterprise reports a degraded or failed battery status.

At what point do the dual 750W platinum power supplies hit their thermal limit during sustained load?

Each supply delivers up to 750W; continuous full-load operation will trigger fan-speed ramp and possible throttling once inlet temperature exceeds the server's rated maximum.
