Rack server for virtualised workloads

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server fitted with two Intel Xeon E5-2609v3 six-core processors running at 1.9 GHz. It ships with 64 GB of DDR4 memory installed across 24 DIMM slots, reaching the supported maximum for this configuration. The chassis provides eight hot-plug 2.5-inch bays for SAS or SATA drives, making it suitable for dense virtualisation or database clusters.

Dual 900 GB SAS drives with H330 RAID

Two Dell 900 GB 10K 6 Gbps SAS drives are included, connected to a PERC H330 12 Gbps RAID controller that supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60. The drives arrive mounted in hot-plug trays so they can be inserted without tools. A DVD-ROM drive is also fitted for legacy media or installation media.

Check power, rack depth and networking needs

The server includes two redundant 750 W hot-swap power supplies; verify that your rack PDUs deliver the required connectors and phase balance. Confirm the 26.8-inch chassis depth fits your rack with cable clearance. The default networking card provides four 1 GbE ports; 10 GbE daughter cards are optional but not included.

Questions about this item

How many DDR4 DIMM slots are free for future memory upgrades?

All 24 DDR4 DIMM slots are already populated to reach the installed 64 GB capacity, so adding more memory would require replacing existing modules.

Which component hits its ceiling first when the server runs at full load continuously?

The two Xeon E5-2609v3 processors are limited to six cores each at 1.9 GHz, so CPU throughput reaches its maximum before the H330 controller or the 12 Gbps SAS backplane saturate.

What is the typical fan noise and heat output with both 750 W power supplies running 24/7?

Dual redundant 750 W supplies and eight 2.5-inch drive bays mean the chassis fans run at higher speeds under sustained load, producing noticeable rack-level noise and exhaust heat.
