Dual-socket Xeon server for virtualisation workloads

The PowerEdge R730 fits 8 large-form-factor bays in a 2U rack chassis and ships with two Xeon E5-2698 v4 processors running at 2.2 GHz. Each CPU delivers 20 cores and 50 MB cache, giving 40 threads for dense virtualisation or database tasks. The platform is sold new with firmware already updated to the latest stable release.

192 GB DDR4 ECC with room to grow to 768 GB

Installed memory uses registered DDR4 ECC modules totalling 192 GB across the 24 DIMM slots. The memory controller supports a maximum of 768 GB, leaving headroom for future expansion without replacing existing sticks. No drives are included; the PERC H730 SAS controller manages up to eight 3.5-inch SATA or SAS devices in hardware RAID.

Redundant 495 W supplies

Dual hot-plug power supplies provide 1+1 redundancy for continuous operation. The iDRAC8 Enterprise licence enables full out-of-band console access, virtual media and lifecycle automation from any browser. Network connectivity includes two 10 GbE and two 1 GbE ports via Intel I350 and X540 controllers, and a rail kit is available on request.

Questions about this item

Will the 8 LFF 3.5" drive bays accept my existing SATA hard drives?

Yes, the chassis provides eight 3.5" bays and the PERC H730 SAS controller supports SATA drives natively.

How can I verify the dual Xeon E5-2698 v4 CPUs and 192GB DDR4 ECC RAM are recognised after power-on?

During POST the BIOS will list both 20-core processors at 2.2GHz and show 192GB registered DDR4; iDRAC8 Enterprise then displays the same inventory in its System Overview.

Does the box include drive caddies for the eight 3.5" bays and the 10GbE SFP+ cables, or must I source them separately?

The unit ships with two 495W supplies, PERC H730, iDRAC8 Enterprise and the Intel I350/X540 quad-port card installed; drive caddies and SFP+ cables are not included.
