Dual-socket Xeon 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack-mount server system equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2660 v3 processors, each running at 2.6 GHz with 10 cores. It ships with 512 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 16 DIMM slots and includes a PERC H730 1 GB RAID controller. Eight 2.5-inch drive bays are populated with 600 GB 10 K SAS hard drives, and dual 750 W redundant power supplies are installed.

Virtualisation and database workloads

This configuration suits environments that need high core counts and large memory capacity for virtualisation, database or high-performance computing tasks. The quad-port network daughter card provides two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ connections, while iDRAC 8 Enterprise enables remote management. Buyers who require solid-state storage tiers or GPU-accelerated compute should consider other platforms.

24 DDR4 slots with 1.5 TB maximum

The server board offers 24 DDR4 memory slots and supports up to 1.5 TB of registered ECC memory, allowing substantial future expansion beyond the 512 GB installed. This ceiling is the key figure when planning memory-intensive deployments.

Questions about this item

Does this server come with rails and power cables so I can mount it in my rack?

The system includes ready rails and a front bezel for rack mounting, plus two 750 Watt redundant hot-swap power supplies.

Will my existing 6 Gb/s SAS drives work with the PERC H730 controller?

The PERC H730 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA controller supports 6 Gb/s SAS and SATA drives in pass-through or RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 modes.

How can I confirm the 512 GB DDR4 memory is recognised and running at 2133 MHz after installation?

Check the iDRAC8 Enterprise inventory and the BIOS memory configuration screen; both will show 16 × 32 GB modules at 2133 MHz.
