Enterprise rack server for virtualization

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2660 v3 processors, each running at 2.6 GHz with 10 cores and a 3.3 GHz turbo frequency. It ships with 128 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory across 8 modules and a Dell PERC H730 1 GB storage controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Eight 400 GB SATA 6 Gb/s 2.5-inch SSDs are installed in the eight drive bays.

Suits dense compute clusters and mixed workloads

This configuration fits midsize to large enterprises running data warehouses, e-commerce platforms, virtual desktop infrastructure or high-performance computing data nodes. The dual-socket design and 24 DIMM slots allow memory expansion up to 1.5 TB. Buyers who need more than eight drive bays, 3.5-inch drive support, or a single-socket platform should evaluate other platforms.

Dual 750 W platinum hot-swap power supplies

Redundant 750 W platinum-efficiency power supplies provide hot-swap capability for continuous uptime. The server includes an Intel X520/I350 quad-port network daughter card with two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ connections, plus iDRAC 8 Enterprise for remote management. Ready rails and a front bezel are included for rack installation.
