Dual Xeon 22-core server for virtualisation

The Dell PowerEdge R730 arrives with two Xeon E5-2699 v4 processors running at 2.2 GHz and 256 GB of DDR4 ECC memory. Eight 2.5-inch drive bays and a PERC H730 SAS controller support large storage arrays. Integrated iDRAC8 Enterprise enables remote management from deployment through daily operation.

Tool-less rails and cabled backplane simplify

The 2U chassis slides into standard racks using the optional rail kit. Drive carriers snap into the hot-plug backplane without tools. The PERC H730 requires a matching cable kit for the 8-bay backplane; missing cables are the most common delay. Firmware is pre-updated to the latest stable release before shipment.

Verify rack depth and power budget before ordering

The unit measures 36 inches deep, so confirm cabinet clearance. Dual 495 W supplies provide redundancy; ensure your PDU delivers sufficient 12th-generation power connectors. No drives are installed — order compatible SATA or SAS media separately. Maximum memory capacity is 768 GB across 24 slots.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the PERC H730 RAID controller is operational after installation?

During POST the controller BIOS initialises and lists detected drives; the iDRAC8 Enterprise dashboard then shows controller health, firmware version and drive status without needing an OS.

Which components are included and which must be sourced separately?

The chassis ships with two Xeon E5-2699 v4 CPUs, 256 GB DDR4 ECC registered memory, PERC H730 SAS controller, dual 495 W power supplies and Intel I350/X540 2×10 GbE + 2×1 GbE network card; 2.5″ drives and rail kit are not included.

Should I choose the 256 GB configuration or expand toward the 768 GB maximum?

256 GB suits most virtualisation and database workloads; add DDR4 RDIMMs in matched sets if your applications need more capacity, up to the 768 GB limit supported by the dual-processor board.
