2U rack server with dual Xeon E5-2620 v3

The PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server built for midsize and large enterprise workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2620 v3 processors running at 2.4 GHz with a 3.2 GHz turbo frequency. Each CPU provides six cores for a total of twelve cores. The system targets virtual desktop infrastructure, databases, data warehouses and high-performance computing data nodes.

256 GB DDR4 with 1.5 TB ceiling

Memory is populated with eight 32 GB DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC modules for 256 GB total capacity. Twenty-four DIMM slots are available and the platform supports up to 1.5 TB when fully populated. The PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache manages twenty-four 300 GB 10K SAS drives in a 2.5 inch form factor. Storage headroom ends when all twenty-four bays are occupied.

Quad-port 1/10 GbE card and iDRAC8 Enterprise

A Dell Intel X520/I350 daughter card adds two 1 GbE ports and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports for flexible network connectivity. iDRAC 8 Enterprise provides full remote management including virtual console and power control. Two 750 W platinum power supplies deliver redundant hot-swap power. Ready rails and a front bezel are included for immediate rack installation.

Questions about this item

Will the LGA 2011-3 Xeon E5-2620 v3 CPUs and DDR4 2133MHz memory work with my existing LGA 2011-3 motherboards?

The server uses two LGA 2011-3 sockets with Xeon E5-2620 v3 2.4GHz 6-core processors and 256GB of DDR4 2133MHz registered ECC memory across 24 slots.

How do I confirm the PERC H730 controller and 24x 300GB 10K SAS drives are healthy after installation?

Use iDRAC8 Enterprise to view controller firmware, battery status, and each drive's SMART data; the H730 supports RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 and pass-through modes.

Does the package include the X520/I350 quad-port card, 750W PSUs, rails and bezel, or must I source any of them separately?

The listing includes the Intel X520/I350 2x 1GbE plus 2x 10Gb SFP+ daughter card, two 750W platinum power supplies, ready rails and front bezel.
