Dual 14-Core Xeon 2U Server

The DELL PowerEdge R730xd packs two Xeon E5-2683 v3 processors at 2.0GHz with 3.0GHz turbo into a 2U rack chassis. Fourteen cores per socket deliver 28 threads for virtualization, database and high-performance computing nodes. The system ships with 768GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 24 slots and supports up to 1.5TB total capacity.

PERC H730 RAID and 24 Drive Bays

A Dell PERC H730 controller with 1GB cache enables RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. Twenty-four front-accessible 2.5-inch bays come populated with 300GB 10K SAS drives for high IOPS storage density. The controller supports both SAS and SATA media for future expansion flexibility.

Quad-Port Networking and Redundant Power

An Intel X520/I350 daughter card provides two 1GbE and two 10Gb SFP+ ports for flexible fabric connectivity. Dual 750W platinum power supplies and hot-swap design keep the platform running during maintenance. iDRAC8 Enterprise gives full out-of-band control, while included rails and bezel simplify rack integration.

Questions about this item

How often do the 300GB 10K SAS drives or the PERC H730 controller battery need replacement under heavy use?

The 24x 300GB 10K SAS drives are enterprise-rated; the H730 controller includes a battery-backed cache module that typically lasts several years before requiring replacement.

Which component hits its ceiling first when all 28 cores run at 3.0GHz Turbo continuously?

The dual 750W Platinum power supplies and system cooling are designed to sustain both Xeon E5-2683 v3 processors at maximum Turbo across all 28 cores.

What noise and heat levels should I expect from the 2U chassis with dual 750W PSUs running 24/7?

Redundant hot-swap fans and Platinum-efficiency power supplies keep acoustic output and thermal load within data-centre norms for a fully populated 2U rack server.
