Questions about this item

Which DDR4 memory speed and form factor must I already have to expand the 128 GB installed in the 24 slots?

The system uses DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC DIMMs; the 128 GB ships as eight 16 GB modules leaving 16 slots free for identical sticks.

Will the PERC H730 controller and the eight 300 GB 10K SAS drives work with older 6 Gb/s SAS or SATA disks I might keep?

The H730 is a 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA controller that negotiates down to 6 Gb/s and 3 Gb/s, so legacy drives operate at their native speed.

How can I confirm the dual Xeon E5-2620 v3 CPUs and the X520/I350 network card are recognised after first boot?

Enter the BIOS or iDRAC 8 Enterprise interface; both will show two 6‑core processors at 2.4 GHz with 3.2 GHz turbo and four ports (two 1 GbE, two 10 Gb SFP+).
