Rack server for virtualisation and databases

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server built for midsize and large enterprise workloads such as data warehouses, e-commerce, virtual desktop infrastructure and high-performance computing nodes. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2620 v3 processors, each running at 2.40 GHz with six cores and a 3.2 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 256 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory across eight 32 GB modules and a PERC H730 1 GB storage controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60.

Suits consolidation projects needing dense memory

This configuration fits IT teams consolidating virtual machines or running memory-heavy databases where the 24 DIMM slots allow growth to 1.5 TB. The quad-port network daughter card provides two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ connections out of the box, while iDRAC 8 Enterprise gives full remote management. Buyers who need more than two processors, GPU expansion slots or storage interfaces beyond SAS and SATA will not find those capabilities in this chassis.

24 DDR4 slots enable 1.5 TB maximum memory

The single specification that decides fit is the 24 memory slots paired with a 1.5 TB ceiling. If the target workload demands more than 256 GB today or a clear path beyond 1.5 TB tomorrow, this platform cannot satisfy it; otherwise the headroom supports most virtualisation and database growth plans.

Questions about this item

Does the server ship with the 800 GB SSDs already installed or do I need to supply my own drives?

Two 800 GB SATA SSDs are pre-installed in the 2.5 in bays; the remaining six bays are empty for additional drives.

Should I choose the 256 GB DDR4 configuration or add more memory for virtualization workloads?

The system includes 256 GB across eight 32 GB modules; twenty‑four slots exist, so extra DDR4 can be added later if workloads demand it.

What throughput can the PERC H730 controller deliver with the fitted 800 GB SSDs?

The H730 supports 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA links and RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60, so the installed SATA SSDs will run at their native 6 Gb/s speed.
