Usage Scenarios
Enterprises facing Data Warehousing[#Data Warehousing] challenges can deploy the R720 as a high-throughput storage node, combining dual RAID controllers with optional PCIe SSDs to achieve sub-millisecond I/O latency for analytics and BI workloads.In large-scale virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) environments, the R720’s expansive DDR3 memory footprint and GPU-accelerated options deliver consistent performance for hundreds of concurrent sessions, while centralized management through iDRAC7 reduces endpoint complexity.
High-performance computing (HPC) clusters benefit from the R720’s balanced CPU-GPU architecture and seven PCIe 3.0 slots, enabling scalable compute nodes for simulations, 3D rendering, and deep-learning workloads .
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is the maximum memory capacity of the R720?
A: By populating all 24 DIMM slots with 32 GB LRDIMMs, the R720 supports up to 768 GB of DDR3 memory, ideal for memory-intensive databases and virtualization Dell.Q2: Which RAID controller should I choose for mixed HDD/SSD configurations?
A: The PERC H710P with 2 GB cache is recommended for mixed HDD and SSD setups—it supports online RAID level migration and faster rebuilds Dell.Q3: How does iDRAC7 enhance server management?
A: iDRAC7 with Lifecycle Controller provides agent-free remote management, automated deployment, and proactive health monitoring, integrated with Dell OpenManage Essentials and Mobile Dell FTP.Q4: Can I add GPUs to the R720 for VDI acceleration?
A: Yes. The R720 supports GPU accelerators in available PCIe slots (up to four front-access PCIe SSD/GPU cards), enabling high-density VDI and HPC workloads -
