Two-socket Xeon rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2640 v3 processors running at 2.60 GHz with eight cores each. It comes with 768 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 24 slots and includes a PERC H730 storage controller with 1 GB cache. Eight 800 GB SATA solid-state drives are pre-installed in the 2.5-inch drive bays.

Virtualisation hosts and database nodes

This configuration suits organisations running virtualised workloads, databases or high-performance computing tasks that benefit from dual-socket throughput and large memory capacity. The quad-port network daughter card provides two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ connections for flexible fabric integration. Buyers who require a single-socket platform, GPU-accelerated compute or storage interfaces beyond SATA and SAS should evaluate alternative systems.

768 GB DDR4 across 24 slots

The installed memory totals 768 GB using 24 modules of 32 GB DDR4, leaving no free DIMM slots for expansion without removing existing memory. The platform supports a maximum of 1.5 TB, so any future increase requires replacing modules. Confirm that your workload fits within this capacity or plan for a memory reconfiguration before deployment.

Questions about this item

Will my existing LGA 2011-3 Xeon coolers fit the dual 8-core 2.6GHz processors in this R730?

The server uses two LGA 2011-3 sockets for the installed Xeon E5-2640 v3 CPUs; Dell’s proprietary 2U heatsinks mount directly to the chassis retention frame, so third-party coolers designed for the same socket but different mounting holes will not align.

How do I verify the PERC H730 controller and all eight 800GB SSDs are healthy after first boot?

Open the iDRAC8 Enterprise web interface, navigate to Storage > PERC H730, and confirm the controller firmware reports 1GB cache with battery backed write cache enabled and all eight drives show “Online” in a single RAID virtual disk.

Which items ship with the server and which must be sourced separately?

The box includes the 2U chassis with bezel, two 750W platinum power supplies, ready rails, 24 populated DDR4 DIMM slots (768GB total), eight 800GB SATA SSDs, the PERC H730 mini card, and the X520/I350 quad-port network daughter card; no additional cables, drives or memory modules are supplied.
