Dual Xeon 10-core 2U server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2660 v3 processors, each running at 2.6 GHz with 10 cores and a 3.3 GHz turbo frequency. It ships with 512 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 16 modules and includes a PERC H730 RAID controller with 1 GB cache. Two 800 GB SATA SSDs provide initial storage in an 8-bay 2.5-inch chassis.

Virtualisation and database workloads

This configuration suits organisations running virtualised environments, databases or high-performance computing nodes that benefit from 20 total cores and a large memory footprint. The quad-port network daughter card adds two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ connections for flexible deployment. Buyers who need more than 24 DIMM slots or a different storage interface should evaluate alternative platforms.

512 GB DDR4 registered ECC memory

The installed 512 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory occupies 16 of the 24 available slots, leaving room to expand toward the 1.5 TB maximum capacity. Confirm that your workload fits within this memory type and slot layout before purchase.

Questions about this item

Will my existing DDR4 registered ECC modules at 2133 MHz fit the 24 slots of this R730?

Yes, the server has 24 DDR4 slots supporting registered ECC memory at 2133 MHz, and 16 slots are already populated with 32 GB modules for the installed 512 GB total.

How can I confirm the PERC H730 controller and both 800 GB SSDs are operating correctly after installation?

During POST the H730 BIOS will list the controller firmware version and detect both 800 GB SATA SSDs; iDRAC8 Enterprise then shows drive health, RAID status and any predictive failure alerts in its web console.

What ships with the server and what must I source separately for a working system?

The unit includes 2 Xeon E5-2660 v3 CPUs, 512 GB DDR4 ECC memory, H730 controller with battery, 2 x 800 GB SATA SSDs, X520/I350 quad-port NIC, iDRAC8 Enterprise, 2 x 750 W PSUs, bezel and rails; you only need to add an operating system and any additional drives for the remaining six 2.5-inch bays.
