DELL PowerEdge R730 2U Rack Server 2x Xeon E5-2620 v3 2.4GHz 6 Core 128GB DDR4 H730 8x 2.5" Trays

Dual Xeon E5-2620 v3 2U Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2620 v3 processors running at 2.4 GHz with six cores each. It ships with 128 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 24 slots and supports up to 1.5 TB total capacity. The chassis includes eight 2.5-inch drive trays for SATA or SAS devices and a PERC H730 storage controller with 1 GB cache. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies provide redundant hot-swap power.

Virtualisation and database hosts

This configuration suits organisations running virtualised workloads, databases or high-performance computing nodes that benefit from dual-socket compute density and large memory headroom. The quad-port network daughter card delivers two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ connections for flexible fabric integration. iDRAC 8 Enterprise enables full out-of-band management. Buyers who need pre-installed solid-state drives or a single-processor layout should evaluate other platforms.

PERC H730 RAID controller

The included PERC H730 controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode with a battery-backed 1 GB cache. It manages the eight 2.5-inch SAS or SATA drive bays directly. This specification determines whether the storage topology matches your redundancy and performance requirements.
