Here the Dell PowerEdge R730xd 2U rack server comes with two 14-core Intel Xeon E5-2680 v4 CPUs at 2.40GHz alongside 64GB of DDR4. It carries two 960GB SATA SSDs for 1.92TB of raw capacity, occupying two bays of the 24-bay 2.5-inch chassis and leaving 22 free.
Supporting hardware includes PERC H730P hardware RAID (2GB cache), 2 × 1GbE RJ45 + 2 × 10GbE RJ45 networking (Intel X550) and dual 1100W power supplies. You also get an iDRAC8 Enterprise licence for out-of-band management and a rack rail kit.
Typical jobs for this build include hosting a few virtual machines, running an ERP or accounting database, or serving internal applications. The two drives pair naturally as a RAID 1 mirror. There is relatively little memory per core, so memory is the first upgrade to consider for virtual machine work. Console access, power control and hardware alerts stay available over the management port whatever state the operating system is in.
It is one of the lighter-memory R730xd builds; a configuration with more memory is the step up for memory-bound workloads.
Our Johannesburg team inspects and bench-tests the server and wipes any stored data before it is released as certified refurbished.
