Dell PowerEdge R730 2U dual-socket server

This 2U rack server ships with two Xeon E5-2650v3 ten-core processors running at 2.3 GHz and 64 GB of DDR4 memory. It includes two 900 GB 10 K SAS drives on a PERC H330 RAID controller and dual 750 W redundant power supplies. The chassis supports up to eight 2.5-inch hot-plug bays and twenty-four DIMM slots.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

Organisations needing a dense, dual-socket platform for virtualisation, database or general compute workloads will find the installed CPU and memory configuration ready to deploy. Buyers who require more than 64 GB of RAM, additional drive bays beyond eight, or 10 GbE networking out of the box should consider a different configuration.

Deciding specification — maximum memory capacity

The system board is limited to 64 GB total DDR4 across twenty-four slots, so the installed 64 GB already reaches the hardware ceiling; any workload needing more memory cannot be accommodated on this platform.

Questions about this item

Does the server ship with the 24 DIMM slots already populated to reach 64 GB?

The system comes with 64 GB of DDR4 installed across the 24 available DIMM slots, 12 per processor.

Can I add SATA drives to the 2.5-inch hot-plug bays alongside the SAS drives?

The eight 2.5-inch hot-plug bays accept both SAS and SATA drives, so you can mix them with the installed 900 GB SAS drives.

How do I verify the PERC H330 controller is healthy after installation?

Check the controller status in the iDRAC8 interface and confirm the RAID 0/1/5/10/50/60 array shows optimal.
