In this video we'll be breaking down nearly every single detail of the Dell PowerEdge R720 server. CPU options, RAM, RAID cards, video cards, power consumption, everything. This specific Dell server is already equipped with dual Intel Xeon E5-2695 v2 12 core 24 thread processors running at 2.4GHz, 192GB of DDR3 memory, and is a hypervisor running VMware ESXi 8.0 on a 256GB PCIe NVMe SSD drive. The R720 does not support booting from PCIe NVMe drive, so this one is booting Clover from an internal USB thumb drive that then points to the NVMe to boot ESXi. It also has another Western Digital 1TB NVMe running on another PCIe card.
The server is running a few different virtual machine operating systems such as Kali Linux 2022, Ubuntu Server 22, Windows Server 2019, Windows Server 2022, Windows 10, Windows 95 and Windows XP. On Server 2019 is it running as a Plex server for home media such as movies and television shows as well as general network storage. The front drive configuration is six Seagate 8TB HDD in software RAID 10 configuration with two additional 2TB Western Digital drives for general storage.
The server fan speed has been manually reduced to lower noise output without a compromising cooling. Check out my video 'R720 IPMI Manual Fan Control Tutorial' for manually setting the fan speed. I have the CPU fans running at 30% and all of the non CPU fans lowered to 16%. Very quiet and cool! Before reducing your fans speeds make sure your server rack cooling is adequate.
