Dell PowerEdge R730 8LFF Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack-mount server system built for data-centre workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2699 v4 processors running at 2.2 GHz, each delivering 22 cores and 55 MB cache. The chassis supports up to eight 3.5-inch drive bays and includes a PERC H730 SAS controller for RAID management.

Suited for memory-heavy tasks, not for GPU workloads

This configuration provides 768 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory, reaching the platform maximum, making it suitable for virtualisation hosts, in-memory databases and high-thread-count compute. Buyers who require discrete GPU acceleration or more than eight drive bays should consider alternative platforms because the integrated graphics and fixed bay count cannot be expanded.

Maximum memory capacity is 768 GB DDR4

The installed 768 GB matches the system limit of 768 GB, so no further memory upgrades are possible on this server. Remote management is handled by iDRAC8 Enterprise, and the unit includes dual 495 W power supplies plus a quad-port network card with two 10 GbE and two 1 GbE connections.

Questions about this item

How do I install the Dell PERC H730 SAS Controller and what step is often missed?

Seat the controller in the dedicated internal slot, connect the SAS cables to the backplane, then import the foreign configuration in the controller BIOS before creating virtual disks.

What maintenance will the 768GB DDR4 memory require over time?

Run the built-in memory diagnostics quarterly; replace any DIMM that logs correctable errors to avoid uncorrectable failures later.

What limit appears first on the 2x Xeon E5-2699 v4 CPUs during sustained workloads?

The 495W power supplies cap total system draw, so the CPUs will throttle once combined load approaches that envelope.
