Virtualization

Setting the standard for feature flexibility in a 2-socket, 2U rack server, the Dell PowerEdge R720 is built to run complex workloads using its highly scalable memory, I/O capacity and flexible network options.

Designed to excel at running a wide range of applications and virtualization environments for both mid-size and large enterprises, the Dell PowerEdge R720 rack server is a general purpose platform with highly expandable memory (up to 768GB) and impressive I/O capabilities to match. With Intel Xeon E5-2600 processors, and the ability to support dual RAID controllers, the R720 can readily handle very demanding workloads, such as data warehouses, e-commerce, virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), databases and high performance computing (HPC) as a data node.

Virtualize more with the R720

Maximize your data center’s application capacity by expanding your virtual environment using the PowerEdge R720’s large memory footprint. Choose an industry-leading hypervisor and take advantage of our system management capability to manage both physical and virtual assets. The R720 can help maximize your virtual machines’ uptime with redundant failsafe hypervisors. Finally, Dell’s Virtual Integrated System (VIS) solution lets you enable complex virtualization environments in just a few mouse clicks.

Manage data overload

Keep pace with the explosion of data in the virtual age with the flexible, powerful I/O and storage capabilities of the R720. Up to 16 internal hard drives and integrated PCI Express 3.0-capable expansion slots greatly increase your capacity, while optional hot-plug, front-access PCIe SSDs (up to 4) enable performance-enhancing, in-box storage tiering. Moreover, Dell Select Network Adapters, our flexible NIC technology, let you choose the right network fabric to match your needs without using up a valuable PCIe slot.

Accelerate the solution

Boost the performance of your HPC or VDI environment by combining the PowerEdge R720’s memory density with an optional GPU accelerator (some with over 500 cores). Choose from a range of GPU options for greater assisted performance.

Performance-packed computing

Dramatically boost application performance with the latest Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 or E5-2600v2 product family and up to 24 dual in-line memory modules (DIMMs). Built with 22-nanometer process technology and up to 12 cores per processor, it enables super-fast processing for compute-intensive tasks.

Advanced I/O capabilities

Enhance your data center performance with the balanced, scalable I/O capabilities of the PowerEdge R720 — including integrated PCI Express (PCIe) 3.0-capable expansion slots.

Flexible and scalable networking

Tailor your network throughout to match your application needs with features that allow you to take full advantage of your additional I/O performance.

Uncompromising productivity

Maximize your efficiency in demanding virtualization, databases and enterprise resource planning (ERP) workloads for midsize and large enterprises with the PowerEdge R720 rack server.

Powerful systems management

Experience easy lifecycle manageability with intelligent hardware-driven systems administration, extensive power management and other innovative management tools.

Powerful and balanced performance

Employ the newest Dell server technology, with high-density memory, balanced I/O and the latest processors, for your enterprise virtualization and business processing environments.

Enhanced operational efficiency

Maintain high-level data center productivity, security and maintenance with next-generation reliability, availability and serviceability (RAS) features within the R720 infrastructure.

Versatile storage capacity and performance

Keep pace and effectively manage exponential data growth with flexible I/O (input/output) and storage options, including Express Flash PCIe technology in the PowerEdge R720 rack server.

Networking and PCIe

The PowerEdge R720 supports one custom network daughter card (NDC), as part of the Select the Network Adapters family, to house the complete LOM subsystem. There are two form factors of Select Network Adapters — one for blade servers and one for rack servers. The rack NDC options supported on the R720 and R720xd include a selection of 1GbE and 10GbE port cards, such as 1000 Base-T, 10Gb Base-T, and 10Gb SFP+

The R720 provides greatly expanded PCIe slot capability over their predecessor servers.This is made possible by the 40 PCIe lanes available from each processor in the system. Twoprocessors are required in the system to enable all PCIe slots.

PCIe Slots Type

One x16 full-length, full-height
Three x8 full-length, full-height
Three x8 half-length, half-height

GPU Support

The R720 can support two 300W, full-length, double-wide GPUs or up to four 150W, full-length, single-wide GPUs. Each GPU can support up to 6GB of dedicated GDDR5 memory and is either actively or passively cooled. The GPUs are installed on the PCIe x16 2.0 interfaces available on riser 2 and GPU-optional riser 3. A system must have the optional riser 3 with a single x16 slot to support more than two GPUs.

Other GPU restrictions

The following GPU restrictions for the R720 are enforced by the order validator:

Requires two processors
Processors must be 115W or less
Maximum of two double-wide GPUs (since they take up two slots)
Maximum of four single-wide GPUs
All GPUs must be same type and model
GPUs require a redundant 1100W power supply and GPU enablement kit
PowerEdge R720 and R720xd Technical Guide
Two double-wide GPUs require the optional riser 3 with a single x16 slot
Four single-wide GPUs cannot occupy optional riser 3 with a single x16 slot
