PowerEdge R730 2U Rack Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack-mounted server system designed for dense compute and memory workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2667 v4 processors running at 3.2GHz, each providing eight cores and 25MB of cache. The chassis supports up to eight 2.5-inch drive bays and includes a PERC H730 SAS RAID controller. Remote management is handled by iDRAC8 with an Enterprise licence.

Virtualisation Hosts and Memory-Intensive

This configuration suits organisations running large virtualisation clusters, in-memory databases or high-performance computing tasks that benefit from 768GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. The dual-processor layout and high core frequency support demanding multi-threaded workloads. Buyers who require GPU acceleration, additional PCIe expansion beyond the standard slots, or a chassis with more than eight drive bays should consider other platforms.

768GB DDR4 ECC Registered Memory at Maximum Capacity

The system arrives with 768GB of DDR4 memory installed, matching the documented maximum capacity for this model. All DIMM slots are populated, so no further memory upgrades are possible without replacing existing modules. Workloads that need more than 768GB of RAM cannot be accommodated on this hardware.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the PERC H730 SAS controller is functioning after installation?

During POST the controller BIOS will display its firmware version and list any attached SAS drives; a successful boot into the OS with the RAID volumes visible confirms the H730 is operating correctly.

What components are included in the box and which items must be sourced separately?

The chassis ships with two Xeon E5-2667 v4 CPUs, 768GB DDR4 ECC registered memory, dual 495W power supplies, the PERC H730 RAID controller, an Intel I350/X540 quad-port network card and iDRAC8 Enterprise; 2.5-inch SAS drives and rail kit are not included and must be purchased separately.

The memory is already at the 768GB maximum — how should I decide between this configuration and a lower-capacity option?

Choose the 768GB DDR4 configuration when your workloads require the full installed capacity; select a lower-capacity version only if the application footprint is smaller and you want to reduce initial cost.
