Dell PowerEdge R730 2U Server

This 2U rack server ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2640 v3 processors running at 2.60 GHz, each providing 8 cores. It includes 64GB of DDR4 2133MHz registered ECC memory across four modules, with 24 total slots supporting up to 1.5TB. The PERC H730 1GB controller manages eight 300GB 10K SAS drives, while an Intel X520/I350 daughter card adds two 1GbE and two 10Gb SFP+ ports. iDRAC8 Enterprise and dual 750W platinum power supplies complete the configuration.

Ideal for virtualization and database workloads

The dual-socket design and large memory capacity suit midsize enterprises running virtual desktop infrastructure, data warehousing or high-performance computing nodes. Eight 2.5-inch drive bays provide local storage density for active datasets. Organisations needing more than two processors, GPU acceleration or fibre-channel connectivity will find this platform does not meet those requirements.

PERC H730 RAID controller with 1GB cache

The storage controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode, backed by a battery for write-cache protection. It connects to the eight installed 300GB SAS drives at 12Gb/s. Buyers who need a different RAID level, external JBOD expansion or a controller without battery-backed cache should verify compatibility before purchase.

Questions about this item

Will the PERC H730 controller battery need replacement and how often?

The PERC H730 includes a 1 GB battery-backed cache module; plan to replace the battery every three to five years to preserve write-cache protection during power loss.

Which component reaches its thermal limit first when both Xeon E5-2640 v3 CPUs run at 3.4 GHz turbo continuously?

The two 8-core processors at 2.6 GHz base / 3.4 GHz turbo will hit their package thermal ceiling before the 750 W power supplies or memory subsystem become the bottleneck.

How loud are the system fans when the server idles at 64 GB DDR4 and eight 300 GB SAS drives spin 24/7?

In a 2U rack chassis with dual 750 W platinum supplies, idle fan noise typically sits in the low 40 dBA range; sustained compute loads push airflow higher and noise into the mid 50s.
