Here the Dell PowerEdge R730xd 2U rack server comes with two Intel Xeon E5-2699A v4 processors (22 cores each, 2.40GHz base clock) alongside 256GB of DDR4 memory. The drive complement is two 3.84TB SAS SSDs, 7.68TB before RAID in two bays of the 24-bay 2.5-inch chassis, so 22 remain open for expansion.
Supporting hardware includes PERC H730P hardware RAID (2GB cache), 2 × 1GbE RJ45 + 2 × 10GbE RJ45 networking (Intel X550) and dual 1100W power supplies. The configuration also lists an iDRAC8 Enterprise licence for out-of-band management and a rack rail kit.
This is the kind of build that suits database servers and virtualisation hosts where storage latency, not capacity, sets the pace. The two drives pair naturally as a RAID 1 mirror.
That is twice the memory of a lighter R730xd build, which matters most for virtual machines and caching. It has more cores than the lighter R730xd builds, so more work runs in parallel.
Condition is certified refurbished, and each server is inspected, bench-tested and wiped in Johannesburg.
