Dell PowerEdge R730 384GB DDR4 Server
This Dell PowerEdge R730 is a dual-socket 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2698 v4 processors running at 2.2 GHz. It ships with 384 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a Dell PERC H730 SAS RAID controller. The 8-bay 3.5-inch chassis supports SATA hard drives, though no drives are installed. Remote management is handled by iDRAC8 with an Enterprise licence.
Suited for memory-heavy virtualisation
The 20-core per processor design and 384 GB RAM capacity suit environments that need high thread counts and large memory footprints. Buyers who need more than 768 GB maximum memory, more than two processors, or a chassis with 2.5-inch drive bays should look at a different platform. The integrated graphics and lack of installed storage also mean it is not a fit for GPU compute or immediate out-of-the-box deployment.
384 GB DDR4 installed memory decides fit
The single specification that determines suitability is the 384 GB of installed DDR4 ECC registered memory across 24 DIMM slots, expandable to 768 GB. If the workload fits within this memory ceiling and the DDR4 generation matches the application requirement, the server is the right part; otherwise a different memory configuration is needed.
