Dell PowerEdge R730 2U Rack Server

This 2U rack server delivers a dual-socket Intel Xeon platform with 48GB of DDR4 memory and a Perc H330 RAID controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60. It includes two hot-swap 750W redundant power supplies, a DVD ROM drive and a Matrox G200 GPU. The chassis provides eight 3.5-inch hot-plug drive bays for SAS or SATA drives and up to seven PCIe 3.0 slots plus a dedicated PERC slot.

Suits single-CPU deployments needing 48GB DDR4

The system ships with one E5-2609v3 six-core processor at 1.9GHz and maxes out at 48GB across 24 DIMM slots, so memory cannot be expanded beyond the installed amount. Builders requiring dual processors, more than 48GB of RAM, 2.5-inch drive bays or included drive trays should consider other configurations.

Single E5-2609v3 CPU caps memory at 48GB

The installed processor is a six-core Xeon running at 1.9GHz and the board's maximum memory capacity is listed as 48GB with 24 DDR4 slots. This hard limit means the server cannot accept additional memory modules beyond the factory configuration, making the CPU choice the decisive factor for capacity planning.

Questions about this item

How does the single E5-2609v3 six-core 1.9GHz CPU perform in a live workload?

The installed processor provides six cores at 1.9GHz; a second socket is empty so you can add another identical Xeon to double the thread count.

What does the H330 12Gbps RAID controller limit in practice?

The H330 handles SAS or SATA drives at up to 12Gbps and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60 across the eight 3.5-inch hot-plug bays.

What rack depth and rails does the 2U chassis require?

The server is 26.8 inches deep, 17.44 inches wide and 3.4 inches high; rails are not included so you must supply a compatible sliding rail kit.
