Dell PowerEdge R730 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack-mount server system designed for data-centre workloads. It ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2650 v3 processor providing 10 cores at 2.3GHz and 16GB of DDR4 memory. The chassis supports up to 2 processors and 24 DIMM slots for expansion.

Dual 750W redundant power supplies

Two 750W redundant hot-swap power supplies deliver fault-tolerant power delivery for continuous operation. The 2U form factor accommodates standard rack airflow patterns while the integrated iDRAC8 remote management enables out-of-band monitoring of thermal conditions and power status without requiring an operating system.

2 x 900GB 10K SAS drives on H330 RAID controller

Storage is provided by two 900GB 10K 6Gbps 2.5-inch SAS drives connected to a Dell PERC H330 12Gbps RAID controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60. The 8-bay 2.5-inch hot-plug backplane accepts SAS or SATA drives for capacity scaling up to 64TB maximum raw storage.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 2.5" SAS drives into the 8 hot-plug bays, and what step is often missed?

Slide each drive into a bay until the latch clicks, then configure the virtual disk in the H330 RAID controller BIOS before the OS sees it.

What maintenance will the 750W redundant power supplies need over time?

Check fan intake filters quarterly and verify both PSU status LEDs stay green in iDRAC8; replace a unit only if its LED turns amber.

What limit appears first when the E5-2650 v3 runs sustained workloads?

The single processor caps memory at 16 GB and 12 DIMM slots, so capacity is reached before thermal throttling occurs.
