PowerEdge R730 2U dual-Xeon server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server built for midsize and large enterprise workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2683 v3 processors, each delivering 14 cores at 2.0 GHz with a 3.0 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 768 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory across 24 DIMM slots. A PERC H730 1 GB controller manages ten 600 GB 10K SAS drives in the 2.5-inch bays.

Ideal for virtualization.

This configuration suits organisations running virtual desktop infrastructure, data warehouses, e-commerce platforms or high-performance computing clusters that benefit from high core counts and large memory capacity. The dual 750 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC 8 Enterprise provide redundancy and remote management for production environments. Buyers who need more than two processors, faster single-thread performance or a different drive interface should evaluate other platforms.

768 GB DDR4 across 24 slots

The installed 768 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory occupies all 24 slots, leaving no room for expansion without removing modules. Maximum supported capacity is 1.5 TB, so any increase requires replacing the existing 32 GB DIMMs with higher-density parts. This constraint determines whether the server can meet your application’s memory footprint before purchase.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the PERC H730 controller and all 10x 600GB SAS drives are recognised after installation?

During POST the controller BIOS lists each attached drive and its RAID state; iDRAC 8 Enterprise then shows the full inventory with drive health, firmware level and virtual-disk status in its web interface.

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

The unit includes 2x Xeon E5-2683 v3 CPUs, 24x 32GB DDR4 2133MHz RDIMMs, PERC H730 1GB controller with battery, 10x 600GB 10K SAS 2.5" drives, Intel X520/I350 quad-port 2x 1GbE 2x 10Gb SFP+ card, iDRAC 8 Enterprise, 2x 750W platinum PSUs, ready rails and front bezel.

Which memory configuration should I choose if I need to expand beyond the installed 768GB?

The system has 24 DIMM slots and supports up to 1.5TB; all 24 slots are currently populated with 32GB modules, so any increase requires replacing existing RDIMMs with larger-capacity DDR4 registered ECC modules.
