Rack server with dual Xeon processors

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2630v3 eight-core processors running at 2.4GHz. It ships with 32GB of DDR4 memory installed across 24 DIMM slots, supporting up to 1536GB total capacity. The system includes a PERC H330 12Gbps RAID controller managing two 900GB 10K SAS drives in hot-plug bays. Dual 750W redundant power supplies provide failover protection for continuous operation.

Storage and expansion layout

Eight 2.5-inch hot-plug drive bays accept SAS or SATA drives, while the H330 controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60 levels. Seven PCIe 3.0 slots plus a dedicated PERC slot allow additional networking or acceleration cards. An iDRAC8 with Lifecycle Controller handles remote management out of the box, with optional Enterprise upgrades and vFlash media available. A DVD-ROM drive is included for media installation.

Sustained workload behaviour

Redundant power supplies and hot-plug drive bays let administrators replace components without shutting down the server during extended operations. The 24 DIMM slots allow memory to be scaled gradually as application demands grow beyond the factory 32GB. Four onboard 1GbE ports handle baseline network traffic, while optional 10GbE daughter cards can be added for heavier throughput. The 2U form factor fits standard racks where airflow and cable routing are managed at the cabinet level.

Questions about this item

What memory ceiling does the installed E5-2630v3 CPUs impose on the 24 DDR4 slots?

The processors limit the 24 DIMM slots to 2400 MT/s DDR4; the system maximum is 1536 GB but the installed CPUs cap practical speed at 2400 MT/s.

How loud and hot does the 2U chassis get with both 750 W supplies running continuously?

Dual 750 W redundant supplies and eight 2.5-inch drive bays mean sustained fan noise and heat output typical of a fully populated 2U rack server under load.

Which rail kit or cabinet depth is required to mount the 26.8-inch deep chassis?

The server measures 26.8 inches long, so a standard 4-post rack with at least 28 inches of usable depth and compatible Dell ready-rails is needed.
