DELL PowerEdge R730 2U 8-Bay 2.5" 2x Xeon E5-2699 v3 2.3GHz 18-Core 64GB DDR4 H730 8x 300GB SAS

Dual 18-Core Xeon Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2699 v3 processors. Each CPU delivers 18 cores running at 2.3 GHz with a 3.6 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 64 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory across four modules. It targets midsize and large enterprises running data warehouses, e-commerce, VDI, databases or high-performance computing workloads.

PERC H730 RAID Controller

Storage is handled by a Dell PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache and a battery backup. It supports SAS and SATA drives with RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. Eight 300 GB 10K SAS 12 Gb/s 2.5-inch hard drives are installed in the front bays. This configuration replaces older arrays limited to slower controllers or smaller drive counts when higher IOPS and hardware RAID flexibility are required.

24 DIMM Slots and Dual 750 W PSUs

The motherboard provides 24 DIMM slots supporting up to 1.5 TB of DDR4 registered ECC memory. Two hot-swap 750 W platinum power supplies deliver redundant power. A quad-port network daughter card adds two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ connections. iDRAC 8 Enterprise enables remote management. Verify that your rack accepts 2U depth, that your network infrastructure supports SFP+ transceivers, and that your workload licences are compatible with the installed processor generation before ordering.
