PowerEdge R730 8x3.5" Chassis

This Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server fitted with two Intel Xeon E5-2660v4 processors and 512GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. The chassis provides eight 3.5-inch drive bays and a PERC H730 SAS controller for storage arrays. It ships without hard drives, ready for custom configuration.

Suits virtualisation and database workloads

The dual 14-core CPUs and large memory capacity support heavy multi-threaded applications and virtual machine density. Buyers who need more than 768GB of RAM or more than two processor sockets should evaluate alternative platforms. The integrated graphics and lack of installed drives mean separate GPU and storage purchases are required.

512GB DDR4 ECC registered memory installed

The system arrives with 512GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory populated across the available slots. This amount determines how many virtual machines or database instances can run simultaneously before an upgrade to the 768GB maximum is necessary. Memory type and capacity are the primary factors for compatibility with existing workloads.

Questions about this item

Will the 2x Xeon E5-2660v4 CPUs and 512GB DDR4 memory work with my existing 12th-gen 495W power supplies?

Yes, the server ships with 2x 495W power supplies designed for 12th-gen hardware, matching the installed dual 14-core processors and 512GB DDR4 ECC registered memory.

How can I verify the PERC H730 RAID controller and iDRAC8 Enterprise remote management are functioning after installation?

After power-on, enter the PERC H730 BIOS utility to confirm the controller detects the SAS/SATA backplane, then access iDRAC8 via its dedicated network port to check system health, firmware versions and sensor readings.

The listing says no drives are installed — what exactly is included in the box and what must I purchase separately?

The box contains the R730 8x3.5" chassis with 2x Xeon E5-2660v4 CPUs, 512GB DDR4 ECC RAM, PERC H730 controller, Intel 2x10GbE+2x1GbE NIC, 2x 495W PSUs and rails on request; you must buy 3.5" SAS/SATA drives separately.
