Dual-socket Xeon E5-2620 v3 server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 delivers two six-core Xeon E5-2620 v3 processors running at 2.4 GHz for virtualisation clusters, database nodes or high-density compute. Buyers who need single-thread speed above 3 GHz or GPGPU acceleration will need a different platform.

512 GB DDR4 with 768 GB ceiling

Installed 512 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory handles large in-memory workloads and dense VM consolidation; the board supports up to 768 GB when all DIMM slots are populated. The eight 2.5-inch SAS bays accept HDDs or SSDs behind the PERC H730 RAID controller, but no drives ship with the unit.

Dual 495 W supplies with iDRAC8 Enterprise

Redundant 495 W power supplies feed the chassis while iDRAC8 Enterprise provides out-of-band monitoring and remote KVM. Integrated Intel I350 and X540 network adapters supply two 1 GbE and two 10 GbE ports for management and data traffic.

Questions about this item

Will the 2.5-inch drive bays accept the SAS drives from my older PowerEdge R620?

Yes, the 8SFF chassis takes 2.5-inch SAS drives and the PERC H730 controller supports them, so existing drives can be installed directly.

How can I verify the dual Xeon E5-2620 v3 CPUs and 512 GB DDR4 are recognised after first boot?

Open the iDRAC8 Enterprise interface or enter the BIOS; both will show two 6-core processors at 2.4 GHz and the full 512 GB of registered ECC memory.

Does the shipment include drive caddies, rails or any storage drives?

The server ships with two 495 W power supplies and the PERC H730 RAID controller; 2.5-inch drive caddies, rail kit and SAS drives are not included and must be purchased separately.
