Dell PowerEdge R730 8-bay 3.5" server
The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack-mount server system built for data-centre and virtualization workloads. It ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2698 v3 processor running at 2.3 GHz and 16 cores, paired with 256 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. The chassis supports up to eight 3.5-inch drive bays and includes a PERC H730 SAS controller for RAID management. Remote administration is handled by iDRAC8 with an Enterprise licence.
Ideal for virtualization hosts
This configuration suits teams that need dense 3.5-inch storage capacity and strong multi-threaded CPU performance in a 2U form factor. The single-socket layout leaves a second processor socket open for future expansion up to two CPUs and 768 GB of total memory. Buyers who require front-bay flash storage or GPU-accelerated compute should evaluate other platforms.
PERC H730 SAS controller with eight 3.5-inch bays
The installed PERC H730 RAID controller manages up to eight 3.5-inch SATA or SAS drives, defining the storage topology for this server. No drives are included, so the controller choice determines which drive types and RAID levels can be deployed. Verify that the SAS or SATA interface matches the drives you plan to install before ordering.

Questions sur cet article
What rack depth and width does the 36 x 24 x 10 in chassis require?
The unit is 36 inches deep and 24 inches wide, so the rack must provide at least 36 inches of usable depth and a 24-inch wide opening.
How is the PERC H730 RAID controller installed, and what step is often missed?
The PERC H730 installs in a dedicated internal slot; the step often missed is connecting the SAS cables from the backplane to the controller before powering on.
When will the 256GB DDR4 ECC Registered memory need replacement or expansion?
The system supports up to 768GB of DDR4; add modules when workloads exceed the installed 256GB or replace any DIMM that fails diagnostics.
