DELL PowerEdge R730 2U 8 Bay 2.5" 2x Xeon E5-2620 v3 2.4GHz 6 Core 512GB DDR4 H730 2x 300GB SAS

Dual-socket Xeon 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack-mounted server fitted with two Intel Xeon E5-2620 v3 processors running at 2.40 GHz with six cores each. It ships with 512 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 16 DIMM slots and a Dell PERC H730 1 GB storage controller. Two 300 GB 10K SAS drives and dual 750 W platinum power supplies are installed.

Virtualisation hosts needing dense memory

The 24 memory slots and 1.5 TB maximum capacity suit environments that run many virtual machines or large in-memory databases. The H730 controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. Organisations that require only a single processor or less than 24 DIMM slots will find the chassis oversized.

24 DDR4 DIMM slots with 1.5 TB ceiling

The board provides 24 registered ECC DDR4 slots and a 1.5 TB maximum, so the installed 512 GB can be expanded in 32 GB increments up to that limit. Buyers whose workloads demand more than 1.5 TB of system memory must select a different platform.
