Dell PowerEdge R730 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server built for midsize and large enterprise workloads such as data warehousing, e-commerce, VDI, databases and HPC data nodes. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2660 v4 14-core processors running at 2.0 GHz with 3.2 GHz turbo, 768 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 24 slots, and a PERC H730 1 GB RAID controller.

Suited for virtualization and storage-heavy tasks

This configuration suits teams that need dense compute, large memory capacity and eight hot-swap 2.5-inch SATA SSD bays in a 2U form factor. Buyers who require more than two processors, memory beyond 1.5 TB, or drive interfaces other than SATA and SAS should evaluate a different platform.

768 GB DDR4 registered ECC memory installed

The system arrives with 768 GB of DDR4 2400 MHz registered ECC memory populated across all 24 DIMM slots, leaving no free slots for expansion without removing modules. The maximum supported capacity is 1.5 TB, so any increase requires replacing the existing 32 GB modules.

Questions about this item

What rack height and mounting hardware does the PowerEdge R730 need?

The server occupies 2U of rack space and includes Ready Rails for installation.

How do I install the PERC H730 controller and what step is often missed?

The H730 1GB mini controller is pre-installed; the battery-backed cache module must be seated and its cable connected before powering on.

What memory upgrades will the R730 need later and how many slots are free?

It uses DDR4 registered ECC modules; 24 slots total with 24×32 GB already installed, so expansion requires replacing existing DIMMs up to the 1.5 TB maximum.
