PowerEdge R730 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server built for data-centre workloads that need dense compute and storage in a standard cabinet. It ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2650 v3 ten-core processor running at 2.3 GHz, 16 GB of DDR4 memory, two 300 GB 15K SAS drives and a PERC H330 RAID controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60. Dual 750 W hot-swap power supplies and an iDRAC8 remote-management module are included.

Suits single-socket deployments with room to grow

This configuration suits teams running virtualisation, database or file-serving tasks that fit within one processor and 16 GB of RAM today but may scale later; the chassis holds a second CPU, 24 DIMM slots and up to eight 3.5-inch hot-plug bays. Buyers who need a second CPU installed, more than 16 GB of memory out of the box, or a different drive count should choose another configuration.

Single Xeon E5-2650 v3 ten-core CPU

The installed processor provides ten physical cores and twenty threads via hyper-threading at a base frequency of 2.3 GHz. A second socket is empty and ready for an identical Xeon when the workload demands it.

Questions about this item

Will the single Xeon E5-2650 v3 at 2.3 GHz and 16 GB DDR4 leave enough PCIe 3.0 lanes for my existing expansion cards?

The R730 provides up to 7 PCIe 3.0 slots plus a dedicated PERC slot, so the installed processor and chipset expose sufficient lanes for additional cards.

How can I confirm the H330 controller and both 300 GB 15K SAS drives are healthy after installation?

Use iDRAC8 with Lifecycle Controller to run storage diagnostics, check RAID 0/1/5/10/50/60 status, and verify drive SMART data and controller firmware.

Does the box include both 750 W redundant power supplies and the DVD drive, or must I buy them separately?

The system ships with 2x 750 W hot-swap power supplies and a DVD ROM installed; no separate purchase is required for those components.
