DELL PowerEdge R730 8LFF 2x Xeon E5-2690 v4 512GB DDR4 No Drive rack server

Dell PowerEdge R730 8LFF dual Xeon server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2690 v4 processors running at 2.6GHz. It ships with 512GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC H730 SAS RAID controller. The 8LFF chassis supports up to eight 3.5-inch SATA drives, though no drives are installed.

Suited for dense virtualisation

This configuration suits buyers who need high core counts and large memory capacity in a standard 2U form factor. The dual 14-core CPUs and 512GB RAM handle heavy virtualisation clusters or in-memory databases. Buyers who require more than 768GB of total memory or more than eight drive bays should look at larger platforms. The integrated graphics and iDRAC8 Enterprise licence cover basic display and remote management needs.

Maximum memory capacity is 768GB DDR4

The system board supports a maximum of 768GB of DDR4 memory across its DIMM slots. The installed 512GB leaves headroom for future expansion if workloads grow. Verify that any additional modules match the DDR4 ECC registered specification for compatibility. The PERC H730 controller manages RAID across the eight 3.5-inch SATA bays.
