Dual 14-core Xeon server for data-intensive

This 2U rack system ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2683 v3 processors running at 2.0 GHz with 3.0 GHz turbo, delivering 28 total cores for virtualization, databases and high-performance computing nodes. It targets midsize and large enterprises that need dense internal storage and remote management in a standard rack footprint.

Twenty-four 800 GB SSDs behind a PERC H730

The H730 1 GB cache card supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through, letting the installed SATA drives be arranged for capacity, redundancy or raw throughput. Quad-port networking with two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ links and iDRAC 8 Enterprise are included for out-of-band control.

768 GB DDR4 registered ECC across 24 slots

Memory is populated as 24 modules of 32 GB at 2133 MHz, leaving no free DIMM positions for expansion unless existing sticks are replaced. The platform maximum is 1.5 TB, so any growth requires higher-density modules that match the registered ECC specification.

Questions about this item

Will the PERC H730 controller battery need replacement and how often?

The PERC H730 includes a battery-backed cache module; battery life varies with charge cycles and temperature, so plan to check its status via iDRAC8 Enterprise alerts and replace when the controller reports degraded capacity.

What thermal or power limit appears first when all 24 SSDs and both 14-core Xeons run continuously?

With two 750 W platinum supplies the chassis power budget is shared across CPUs, memory and drives; sustained full-load operation will hit the platform power envelope before any single component hits its thermal ceiling.

How loud are the fans and what is the typical exhaust temperature during 24/7 operation?

The 2U rack design uses redundant hot-swap fans that ramp speed based on inlet temperature and component load; iDRAC8 Enterprise reports real-time fan RPM and exhaust readings so you can monitor actual noise and heat in your rack.
