About this product
This Dell PowerEdge R720XD server features dual Intel Xeon E5-2640 processors running at 2.50GHz and comes with 64GB of REGISTERED DDR3 RAM across 24 memory slots. It's a 2U rackmount server with 14 drive bays configured for SAS drives, complete with 14 caddies. The server includes a Dell PERC H710P Mini storage controller, dual 750W power supplies, and 8 Broadcom Gigabit Ethernet ports. Please note that it ships without any operating system or hard drives installed.
Our take
If you're looking for a solid foundation to build a powerful server, this Dell PowerEdge R720XD is a strong contender, especially at its price point. The dual Xeon processors and generous 64GB of DDR3 RAM provide ample processing power and memory for virtualization or demanding applications. I appreciate that it includes 14 SAS caddies, ready for you to add your preferred drives. The dual redundant power supplies are a big plus for reliability. However, be prepared to source your own SAS drives and operating system, as neither are included. The lack of rails might also be an additional purchase to consider for rack installation.
