Rack Server for Virtualised Workloads

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2609v3 six-core processors at 1.9GHz and 16GB of DDR4 memory. It targets IT teams building virtualisation hosts, database nodes or application servers that need dual-socket compute density in a standard rack footprint. The system ships without an operating system or storage drives.

Drive Bays PCIe Expansion and Redundant Power

Eight 2.5-inch hot-plug bays accept SAS or SATA drives and connect to the integrated PERC H330 controller supporting RAID 0 1 5 10 50 60. Seven PCIe 3.0 slots plus a dedicated PERC slot provide room for additional network or storage adapters. Dual 750W hot-swap power supplies deliver redundancy without external UPS wiring.

iDRAC8 Remote Management and Basic Video

The iDRAC8 with Lifecycle Controller enables out-of-band deployment monitoring and firmware updates over a dedicated network port. A Matrox G200eR2 with 8MB cache supplies console video for local troubleshooting. Four onboard 1GbE ports handle production traffic while optional 10GbE daughter cards can be added later.

Questions about this item

Will the 2400 MT/s DDR4 run at full speed with the installed E5-2609v3 CPUs?

Memory speed depends on processor capability; the E5-2609v3 may limit DDR4 below 2400 MT/s.

How loud and hot does the dual 750 W redundant supply get during continuous operation?

Two 750 W hot-swap units share load; fan speed ramps with thermal demand in the 2U chassis.

Which rail kit fits the 26.8-inch deep R730 chassis for my rack?

The 2U R730 requires Dell sliding rails matched to its 26.8-inch depth; rails are not included.
