Rack Server for Virtualisation and Databases

This new Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server built for midsize and large enterprise workloads. Dual Intel Xeon E5-2683 v3 processors provide 28 cores at 2.0 GHz with 3.0 GHz turbo. The system includes 768 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory across 24 slots.

Suits Consolidation Projects Not Small Deployments

It suits IT teams running virtual desktop infrastructure, database clusters or high-performance computing nodes that need dense memory and dual-socket throughput. Organisations needing only a single processor, less than 768 GB of RAM or a tower form factor should look at a different platform.

768 GB DDR4 Installed Across 24 Slots

The server ships with 768 GB of DDR4 memory fully populating the 24 DIMM slots and supports expansion to 1.5 TB. Verify that your workload fits within this installed capacity or plan for a memory upgrade before deployment.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 768 GB DDR4 configuration or add more memory later?

The server ships with 768 GB across 24 slots using 32 GB DDR4 modules, leaving no free slots; maximum capacity is 1.5 TB, so any expansion requires replacing existing modules.

What does the 2.0 GHz base clock with 3.0 GHz turbo mean for real workloads?

Each of the two 14-core Xeon E5-2683 v3 processors runs at 2.0 GHz base and can boost to 3.0 GHz, giving 28 total cores that accelerate multi-threaded tasks such as virtualization and databases.

How does the PERC H730 12 Gb/s SAS controller limit drive performance?

The H730 controller supports 12 Gb/s SAS and SATA with RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60; the installed 300 GB 10K SAS drives operate at the controller's 12 Gb/s interface speed.
