DELL PowerEdge R730 2U rack server E5-2609 v3 1.9GHz 48GB DDR4 2x 900GB 10K SAS H730

Dell PowerEdge R730 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2609 v3 six-core processor running at 1.9 GHz. It ships with 48 GB of DDR4 memory installed across 24 DIMM slots and includes two 900 GB 10K SAS drives managed by a PERC H730 RAID controller. Dual 750 W redundant power supplies and a DVD-ROM drive complete the baseline configuration.

Suited for dense virtualisation

This server fits environments that need up to eight 2.5-inch hot-plug drive bays with hardware RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 or 60 and out-of-band management via iDRAC8. Buyers who need dual-processor performance, more than 48 GB of memory from day one, or 10 GbE networking without adding a daughter card should evaluate other configurations.

Single E5-2609 v3 processor

The installed CPU provides six cores at 1.9 GHz and supports DDR4 memory speeds up to 2400 MT/s depending on processor capability. Only one processor is populated, so the second socket remains available for future expansion if the workload demands additional cores.
