Dual 22-Core Xeon 2U Rack Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server built around two Intel Xeon E5-2699 v4 processors, each with 22 cores running at 2.2 GHz. It ships with 128 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across eight 16 GB modules and includes a PERC H730 storage controller with battery-backed cache. The system is new and comes populated with ten 600 GB 10K SAS drives in its 2.5-inch drive bays.

Suited For Virtualisation And Database Nodes

This server suits organisations running virtualised workloads, databases or high-performance computing tasks that benefit from 44 total cores and a large memory footprint. The quad-port network daughter card provides two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ connections for flexible fabric integration. It is not for buyers who need more than 24 DIMM slots, more than two processor sockets, or storage interfaces beyond SAS and SATA.

1.5 TB Maximum DDR4 Capacity

The platform supports up to 1.5 TB of DDR4 memory across 24 slots, so the installed 128 GB leaves substantial headroom for future expansion. This ceiling is the key figure when planning memory-heavy applications such as in-memory databases or dense virtual desktop infrastructure.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the H730 controller and all ten 600 GB SAS drives are recognised after first boot?

Enter the PERC H730 BIOS utility during POST and confirm the controller firmware version, battery status, and that all ten 600 GB SAS drives appear in the physical disk list with healthy status.

Which components are included and which must be sourced separately?

The chassis ships with dual Xeon E5-2699 v4 processors, 128 GB DDR4 ECC memory, PERC H730 controller, ten 600 GB 10K SAS drives, X520/I350 quad-port network card, iDRAC8 Enterprise, dual 750 W platinum PSUs, rails and bezel. Operating system licences and any additional drives or memory are not included.

Should I select the 128 GB configuration or expand toward the 1.5 TB maximum?

The system arrives with 128 GB across eight 16 GB DDR4 modules leaving sixteen free slots. Choose the base 128 GB for typical virtualisation workloads; add matched DDR4 registered ECC modules in multiples of eight if your database or HPC tasks require more capacity up to 1.5 TB.
