PowerEdge R730 dual Xeon 14-core server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server fitted with two Intel Xeon E5-2660 v4 processors, each running at 2.0 GHz with 14 cores. It ships with 512 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 16 modules and a PERC H730 storage controller with battery-backed cache. Two 800 GB SATA SSDs are installed in the eight 2.5-inch drive bays, and dual 750 W platinum power supplies provide redundancy. iDRAC8 Enterprise and a quad-port network daughter card with two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports handle remote management and connectivity.

Suited for virtualization and database nodes

This configuration targets midsize and large enterprises running virtual desktop infrastructure, databases, data warehousing or high-performance computing workloads that benefit from 28 total cores and a large memory footprint. The eight-bay chassis and H730 controller support RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 for local storage resilience. Buyers who require more than eight 2.5-inch drive bays or a different storage interface should evaluate alternative platforms.

512 GB DDR4 registered ECC memory installed

The system arrives with 512 GB of DDR4 2400 MHz registered ECC memory populating 16 of the 24 available DIMM slots, leaving room to expand up to the 1.5 TB maximum. This memory type is mandatory for compatibility; other DDR generations will not fit or function. Confirm that your workload fits within the installed capacity or plan for additional modules before deployment.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 512GB DDR4 configuration or add more memory up to the 1.5TB maximum?

The server ships with 512GB using 16 of the 24 DDR4 slots, leaving 8 slots free. Adding modules later is straightforward if workloads grow beyond the installed capacity.

What does the 2.0GHz base clock with 3.2GHz turbo mean for actual performance?

Each of the 28 Xeon cores runs at 2.0GHz and can boost to 3.2GHz when thermal headroom allows, giving strong single-thread speed for database and virtualisation tasks.

How does the PERC H730 12Gb/s SAS/SATA controller limit the installed 800GB SSDs?

The H730 connects to the 6Gb/s SATA SSDs at their native link speed, so the drives — not the controller — set the throughput ceiling for the two 800GB units.
