Dell PowerEdge R730 8-bay server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server populated with two Intel Xeon E5-2667 v4 processors running at 3.2GHz and 256GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. Eight 3.5-inch drive bays connect through a PERC H730 SAS controller supporting SATA drives. Remote management uses iDRAC8 Enterprise and dual 495W supplies power the chassis.

Suits virtualisation hosts needing large memory

This configuration suits buyers who need high core counts and 256GB RAM for virtual machines or databases. It is not for buyers who require GPU acceleration or single-thread frequencies above 3.2GHz. It is not for teams needing more than two processor sockets or memory beyond 768GB. It is not for deployments that need drives included in the shipment.

Eight 3.5-inch bays with PERC H730 RAID

The single specification that decides fit is the eight 3.5-inch drive bays paired with the PERC H730 RAID controller. This combination determines how many SATA drives you can install and which RAID levels are available. If your workload needs more bays, a different controller or smaller drive form factor, this chassis will not match the requirement.
