Dell PowerEdge R730 8-bay rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack-mount server built for virtualisation, database and compute workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2620 v3 processors at 2.4 GHz and 512 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. The 8-bay 3.5-inch chassis supports SAS and SATA drives through a PERC H730 RAID controller.

Build quality and daily connectivity

The unit is professionally inspected, cleaned and fully tested with the latest firmware before dispatch. Dual 495 W power supplies provide redundancy for continuous operation. Networking includes two 10 GbE and two 1 GbE ports via Intel I350 and X540 adapters. Remote management is handled by iDRAC8 Enterprise for out-of-band control.

What to verify before ordering

No drives are installed; you must supply 3.5-inch SAS or SATA disks to populate the eight bays. Maximum memory capacity is 768 GB, so further upgrades are possible within the 24 DIMM slots. A rail kit is available on request but not included by default. Ensure your rack depth accommodates the 36-inch chassis length.

Questions about this item

What SAS standard does the PERC H730 RAID controller use and what throughput does it cap at?

The PERC H730 RAID controller uses 12 Gb/s SAS and caps drive throughput at that rate.

What rack depth and rail clearance does the 36 x 24 x 10 inch chassis need to mount?

The chassis is 24 inches deep and 10 inches high, so allow at least 24 inches of rail depth and 2U of vertical space.

How is the iDRAC8 Enterprise licence activated and what step is often missed?

The iDRAC8 Enterprise licence is pre-loaded; the step often missed is setting a static IP and enabling the dedicated management port in the BIOS before first boot.
