Dual 14-Core Xeon Server for Enterprise Workloads

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2660 v4 processors. Each CPU runs at 2.0 GHz with a 3.2 GHz turbo frequency and provides 14 cores. The system targets midsize and large enterprises running data warehouses, e-commerce platforms, virtual desktop infrastructure, databases or high-performance computing data nodes.

128GB DDR4 Memory and 800GB SSD Storage

The server ships with 128 GB of DDR4 2400 MHz registered ECC memory installed across eight 16 GB modules. Twenty-four memory slots support a maximum capacity of 1.5 TB. Two 800 GB SATA 6 Gb/s 2.5-inch enterprise SSDs are installed and managed by a PERC H730 1 GB controller that supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60.

12 Gb/s SAS/SATA Controller and Quad-Port Networking

The H730 controller operates at 12 Gb/s for both SAS and SATA drives. Network connectivity comes from an Intel X520/I350 daughter card providing two 1 GbE ports and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC 8 Enterprise remote management complete the platform.

Questions about this item

Will my existing DDR4 2400MHz Registered ECC modules work alongside the 128GB already installed?

Yes, the server has 24 DDR4 slots supporting up to 1.5TB total, so you can add compatible Registered ECC modules to the 8x 16GB already populated.

How can I verify the PERC H730 controller and both 800GB SSDs are recognised after first boot?

Enter the H730 BIOS (Ctrl+R) or iDRAC8 Enterprise interface; both should show the controller with its 1GB cache and the two 800GB SATA SSDs in a healthy RAID or pass-through state.

Which items ship in the box and what must I source separately?

The unit includes 2x Xeon E5-2660 v4 CPUs, 128GB DDR4, H730 controller, 2x 800GB SSDs, X520/I350 quad-port NIC, iDRAC8 Enterprise, 2x 750W PSUs, bezel and rails; you only need to add rack mounting hardware and any extra drives or memory.
