Dual Xeon E5-2620 v3 Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2620 v3 processors, each running at 2.40 GHz with six cores. It includes 512 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 16 modules and a PERC H730 storage controller with 1 GB cache. Eight 2.4 TB SAS hard drives and a quad-port network daughter card provide storage and connectivity for demanding enterprise workloads.

Suits Virtualisation And Database Nodes

This configuration suits midsize to large enterprises running virtual desktop infrastructure, databases, data warehouses or high-performance computing nodes. The dual-socket design and large memory capacity support heavy concurrent workloads. Buyers who need solid-state storage, more than two processors, or a different drive interface should look at other platforms.

512 GB DDR4 Registered ECC Memory

The system ships with 512 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory installed in 16 slots, leaving eight slots available for expansion up to 1.5 TB. This memory capacity is the primary factor that determines whether the server can handle your planned virtual machine density or in-memory database size. Verify your application requirements against this figure before purchasing.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the PERC H730 controller is managing the 8x 2.4TB SAS drives correctly after installation?

During POST the controller BIOS lists each physical drive and the virtual disks you created; iDRAC8 Enterprise then shows drive health, RAID level and rebuild progress in its storage dashboard.

Which items ship with the server and which must be sourced separately?

The unit includes two Xeon E5-2620 v3 processors, 512GB DDR4 in 16 modules, PERC H730 with battery, eight 2.4TB SAS drives, X520/I350 quad-port card, iDRAC8 Enterprise, two 750W PSUs, rails and bezel; SFP+ transceivers and OS media are not included.

Should I choose the 512GB DDR4 configuration or plan to expand toward the 1.5TB maximum?

512GB fills 16 of the 24 slots with 32GB modules leaving eight slots free; if workloads need more capacity you can add up to eight additional 32GB DDR4 modules to reach 1.5TB.
