Server configuration

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server fitted with two Intel Xeon E5-2620 v3 processors running at 2.4 GHz, each offering six cores. It ships with 128 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory spread across eight 16 GB modules. A PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache manages the two 300 GB 10K SAS drives, while a quad-port network daughter card provides two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ connections. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC8 Enterprise complete the package.

Who this suits

This system fits organisations that need a dense, two-socket platform for virtualisation, database or high-performance computing workloads. The 24 DIMM slots allow memory to grow to 1.5 TB, and the H730 controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Buyers who require more than eight 2.5-inch drive bays or a different drive interface should look elsewhere.

Deciding specification

The eight-bay 2.5-inch SAS/SATA backplane is the constraint that determines whether the R730 fits your storage plan; only drives with those interfaces can be installed internally.
