Server purpose

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server built for virtualisation clusters and database workloads. Dual ten-core Xeon processors deliver 40 virtual threads for concurrent applications. It fits standard racks and includes redundant hot-swap power supplies for continuous uptime.

Memory ceiling

Installed memory is fixed at 64 GB DDR4 across 24 DIMM slots with a 2400 MT/s ceiling. The chipset limits total capacity to 64 GB, so no further expansion is possible. Buyers who need more memory must choose a different platform.

Storage throughput

Two 300 GB 15K SAS drives feed the H730 controller with 1 GB cache. RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 are supported for sustained mixed read-write streams. Eight 2.5-inch hot-plug bays allow capacity growth without downtime.
