Dell PowerEdge R730 8-Bay Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack-mount server equipped with a single Intel Xeon E5-2683 v4 processor running at 2.1GHz. It provides 16 cores and 384GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory across 24 slots. The 8x3.5-inch chassis supports SATA and SAS drives through a PERC H730 RAID controller.

Suits memory-intensive virtualisation workloads

This configuration suits environments that need large memory capacity for virtualisation, database caching or in-memory analytics. The single processor leaves a second socket available for future expansion up to 768GB total. Buyers who need high single-thread frequency, GPU compute or more than eight drive bays should consider other platforms.

384GB DDR4 ECC registered memory installed

The installed 384GB DDR4 ECC registered memory is the decisive specification. It determines whether the system can hold your working dataset without swapping. Verify your application's memory footprint against this figure before purchase.

Questions about this item

How many additional DDR4 modules can I add before reaching the 768GB maximum?

The system holds 384GB now and supports up to 768GB, so another 384GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory can be installed in the remaining slots.

Will the PERC H730 controller become a bottleneck with eight 3.5-inch drives under sustained write loads?

The PERC H730 SAS controller manages all eight bays; its throughput and cache determine the sustained write ceiling for the installed drive set.

How loud and hot does the dual 495W power supply setup run during continuous 24-hour operation?

Two 495W supplies share the load, and the iDRAC8 enterprise license lets you monitor real-time fan speed, inlet temperature and power draw remotely.
