Dell PowerEdge R730 2U Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2640 v3 8-core processors running at 2.60 GHz with a 3.4 GHz turbo. It includes 768 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory across 24 slots and a PERC H730 1 GB storage controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies provide redundancy.

Suits virtualisation and database workloads

This configuration suits organisations running virtual desktop infrastructure, databases or high-performance computing nodes that benefit from dual-socket compute and large memory capacity. The quad-port network daughter card delivers two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ connections. Buyers needing more than 1.5 TB of memory or more than two processors should consider a different platform.

768 GB DDR4 in 24 slots

The installed 768 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory occupies all 24 DIMM slots, leaving no room for expansion without replacing modules. Maximum supported capacity is 1.5 TB, so any increase requires higher-density sticks. Verify that your workload fits within this limit before purchase.
