Dual Xeon 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2630v3 eight-core processors running at 2.4 GHz. It ships with 64 GB of DDR4 memory installed across 24 DIMM slots and includes a PERC H330 RAID controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60. Two 750 W hot-swap redundant power supplies provide power resilience.

Virtualisation hosts and general compute

This server suits organisations running virtualised workloads, databases or traditional applications that benefit from 16 physical cores and 32 threads. The 24 memory slots allow expansion up to the processor-supported maximum, and eight 2.5-inch hot-plug bays accept SAS or SATA drives. Buyers needing more than eight drive bays, 10 GbE networking as standard, or GPU compute capacity should evaluate other platforms.

PERC H330 RAID controller

The included H330 controller delivers 12 Gbps SAS connectivity and hardware RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60. It occupies the dedicated PERC slot, leaving up to seven PCIe 3.0 slots free for additional I/O. Confirm that the RAID feature set matches your storage redundancy and performance requirements before deployment.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 64GB DDR4 configuration or add more modules up to the 1536GB maximum?

The system ships with 64GB installed across 24 DIMM slots. You can expand later using DDR4 modules up to 2400MT/s, but actual speed depends on the installed Xeon processors.

What does the 2.4GHz clock on the dual E5-2630v3 CPUs deliver in this 2U chassis?

Two eight-core Xeon E5-2630v3 processors run at 2.4GHz, providing 16 physical cores and 32 threads for virtualisation or database workloads within the 2U rack form factor.

How does the H330 12Gbps RAID controller limit the eight 2.5-inch drive bays?

The PERC H330 supports SAS and SATA drives at 12Gbps with RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60, capping array performance at the controller's 12Gbps interface speed.
