PowerEdge R730 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server built for virtualization and database workloads. It ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 eight-core processor at 2.4GHz and 64GB of DDR4 memory across 24 DIMM slots. Dual 750W redundant power supplies and hot-plug drive bays support continuous operation in dense environments.

Single Xeon E5-2630 v3 processor installed

The server includes one eight-core Xeon E5-2630 v3 running at 2.4GHz with hyper-threading for 16 virtual cores. A second processor socket is available on the Intel C610 chipset, but the board is populated with only one CPU. Buyers needing dual-socket performance from day one must add a matching second processor.

PERC H330 RAID controller with two 300GB SAS drives

The bundled PERC H330 12Gbps controller manages RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60 across up to eight 2.5-inch hot-plug bays. Two factory-installed 300GB 15K SAS drives provide a ready boot volume or mirrored pair. No operating system is included, so the installer must supply their own hypervisor or OS media.

Questions about this item

What does the single 2.4 GHz Xeon E5-2630 v3 with eight cores mean for real-world throughput?

The installed processor delivers eight physical cores at 2.4 GHz with hyper-threading for 16 logical threads, handling multi-threaded workloads such as virtualisation or database tasks within the power envelope of a single-socket configuration.

How does the H330 RAID controller’s 12 Gbps SAS interface limit drive performance?

The H330 controller provides a 12 Gbps SAS link to each drive bay, so the two installed 300 GB 15K drives and any added SAS or SATA drives are capped at that interface speed rather than the drive’s native rate.

What are the exact dimensions and weight for rack mounting this 2U server?

The chassis measures 26.8 inches deep by 17.44 inches wide by 3.4 inches high and weighs 58 lbs, fitting a standard 2U rack space with adequate depth clearance.
