Dell PowerEdge R730 2U Dual Xeon Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server with dual Intel Xeon E5-2609 v3 six-core processors at 1.9GHz and 32GB DDR4 memory. It includes a Dell PERC H730 RAID controller with 1GB cache supporting RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60. Two 1TB 7.2K SATA drives occupy two of eight 2.5-inch hot-plug bays.

Suited for virtualisation hosts

This server fits environments that need redundant 750W power supplies, iDRAC8 remote management, and up to 24 DIMM slots for memory expansion. Buyers who need more than eight drive bays, PCIe 4.0 slots, or 10GbE networking as standard should look at other platforms.

PERC H730 RAID controller with 1GB cache

The H730 supports RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 across SATA and SAS drives and provides 12Gbps throughput. This specification determines whether the server can deliver the array performance and data protection level your deployment requires.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 32GB DDR4 configuration or add more memory modules?

The server ships with 32GB DDR4 installed and supports up to 1536GB across 24 DIMM slots; add modules in matched pairs per processor for best performance.

What does the 1.9GHz clock speed mean for actual workloads?

Each E5-2609 v3 provides six cores at 1.9GHz, giving 12 total threads suited for virtualization, databases, and general-purpose tasks that scale across cores rather than single-thread speed.

How does the H730 12Gbps RAID controller limit drive performance?

The Perc H730 supports 12Gbps SAS/SATA and RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60; installed 7.2K SATA drives will saturate well below the controller ceiling, so the array topology is the practical bottleneck.
