PowerEdge R730 2U dual-Xeon server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server built for midsize and large enterprises. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2620 v3 processors at 2.4 GHz, 64 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory and ten 600 GB 10K SAS drives. A PERC H730 controller and quad-port 1 GbE and 10 GbE networking come standard.

Virtualisation hosts and database nodes

This configuration suits teams running virtual desktop infrastructure, data warehouses or high-performance computing workloads that benefit from dual-socket capacity and redundant power. Buyers who need more than 24 DIMM slots, GPU compute density or single-thread frequency beyond 3.2 GHz should evaluate other platforms.

24 DDR4 slots supporting 1.5 TB maximum

The server provides 24 memory slots and a 1.5 TB ceiling, so the installed 64 GB can grow substantially without replacing the chassis. Confirm that your workload fits within the LGA 2011-3 socket and C610 chipset before ordering.

Questions about this item

What rack space and power circuits do I need to install this 2U server?

The unit occupies 2U of rack height and ships with two 750 Watt platinum hot-swap power supplies, so plan for two PDU outlets and the included ready rails.

Can I keep using my existing 6 Gb/s SAS drives with the PERC H730 controller?

The PERC H730 is a 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA controller that negotiates down to 6 Gb/s, so older SAS or SATA drives will operate at their native speed.

How do I confirm the 64 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz ECC memory is recognised and healthy after first boot?

Open the iDRAC 8 Enterprise interface or the BIOS memory map; both will show 64 GB installed across the populated slots and report ECC status as OK.
