Dell PowerEdge R730 2U Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server built for midsize and large enterprises. It runs two Intel Xeon E5-2680 v4 14-core processors at 2.4 GHz with 3.3 GHz turbo. The system includes 128 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 24 slots and supports up to 1.5 TB total capacity.

Questions about this item

Will my DDR4 RDIMM memory modules work in the 24 DIMM slots of this R730?

Yes, the server has 24 DDR4 slots and ships with 128 GB of registered ECC memory installed.

Can the PERC H730 controller run my existing 12 Gb/s SAS drives alongside the eight 300 GB 10K drives already fitted?

The H730 supports 12 Gb/s SAS and SATA, so your current SAS drives will operate with the installed drives.

How do I confirm the iDRAC8 Enterprise remote management is active after the server posts?

During boot the iDRAC network settings appear on screen; ping the address or open it in a browser to verify access.
