Dell PowerEdge R730 2U rack server

This 2U rack server ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2609v3 six-core processor running at 1.9 GHz and 64 GB of DDR4 memory across 24 DIMM slots. The Dell Perc H330 controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60 for up to eight 3.5-inch hot-plug SAS or SATA drives. Dual 750 W redundant power supplies and a DVD-ROM drive complete the base configuration.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

This server suits workloads that fit within eight 3.5-inch drive bays and a single-socket Xeon platform, such as file services, virtualisation hosts or database nodes that use the H330 RAID stack. Buyers who need more than eight drive bays, dual-processor performance from day one, or an operating system pre-installed should look elsewhere.

Specification that decides fit

The H330 12 Gbps RAID controller limits storage to SAS and SATA drives in eight hot-plug bays with RAID levels up to 60, so confirm that your capacity and redundancy needs match this ceiling before ordering.
