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 and high-performance computing. It ships with dual Intel Xeon E5-2620 v3 processors, 768GB of DDR4 memory and a PERC H730 storage controller. Dual 750W power supplies and iDRAC 8 Enterprise management are included.

Suited for virtualised databases

This server suits teams that need large memory capacity and dual-processor performance in a compact 2U form factor. The 24 DIMM slots support up to 1.5TB of DDR4, allowing future expansion. Buyers who need more than two processors, GPU compute or storage interfaces beyond SAS and SATA should evaluate other platforms.

768GB DDR4 registered ECC memory installed

The system arrives with 768GB configured as 24 modules of 32GB DDR4 2133MHz registered ECC. This fills every slot, so any memory upgrade requires replacing existing modules. The maximum supported capacity is 1.5TB when higher-density DIMMs are used.

Questions about this item

What rack height and rail type does this 2U server require for mounting?

The server occupies 2U of rack space and ships with Dell Ready Rails for tool-less installation in a standard 4-post rack.

How are the two 750 W power supplies installed, and what step is often missed?

Both supplies slide into the rear hot-swap bays until they click; the step often missed is seating each unit firmly so the latch engages and the AC cords lock in place.

When will the PERC H730 controller battery need replacement, and what does it protect?

The 1 GB cache battery typically lasts 3–5 years; it preserves write-cache data during a power loss so the RAID array stays consistent.
