DELL PowerEdge R730 2U rack server

The DELL PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server designed for midsize and large enterprises. It handles demanding workloads such as data warehouses, e-commerce, virtual desktop infrastructure, databases and high-performance computing as a data node. Dual Intel Xeon E5-2683 v3 processors provide 28 cores total at 2.0 GHz with 3.0 GHz turbo capability.

Suits virtualisation and database clusters.

This server suits organisations running virtualisation clusters, database workloads or VDI deployments that need dense memory and fast storage. Buyers who need GPU acceleration for AI training or rendering should look elsewhere because the specification lists no GPU support. The 2U form factor fits standard racks but offers no room for full-length add-in cards.

768GB DDR4 registered ECC memory in 24 slots

The system ships with 768 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory across all 24 DIMM slots. Maximum capacity reaches 1.5 TB, so the installed amount is half the supported limit. Any memory upgrade requires replacing existing modules because no free slots remain.

Questions about this item

What rack space and power circuit do I need to install this 2U server with dual 750W PSUs?

The server occupies 2U of rack height and ships with two 750 watt platinum power supplies; ensure your rack has a 2U opening and a PDU circuit rated for the combined load.

Can the PERC H730 controller manage my existing SATA drives alongside the eight installed 800GB SSDs?

The H730 supports SAS and SATA in RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through, so legacy SATA drives can be added to the same backplane and grouped into virtual disks.

How do I confirm iDRAC8 Enterprise is reachable and the 768GB DDR4 memory posts without errors?

Connect the dedicated iDRAC network port, browse to its IP address and verify the System > Inventory page shows 768GB DDR4 2133MHz and zero memory errors.
