PowerEdge R730 2U dual Xeon server

This 2U rackmount server ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2680 v4 processors running at 2.4 GHz, each providing 14 cores. The system includes 768 GB of DDR4 2400 MHz registered ECC memory across 24 slots. A Dell PERC H730 1 GB controller manages the two installed 300 GB 10K SAS drives in the eight 2.5-inch bays. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC 8 Enterprise remote management are standard.

Ideal for virtualisation and database nodes

The 28 total cores and 768 GB memory suit virtual desktop infrastructure, database serving and high-performance computing data nodes. Eight 2.5-inch SAS bays and the H730 RAID controller support RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 for local redundancy. Buyers who need more drive bays or a different storage interface should evaluate other platforms.

PERC H730 RAID controller with 1 GB cache

The storage controller determines which RAID levels are available and whether a battery-backed cache protects writes. This unit provides the H730 with 1 GB cache enabling RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. Verify that the controller matches your storage topology before purchase.
