Dell PowerEdge R730 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack-mount server system designed for midsize and large enterprise workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2680 v3 12-core processors running at 2.5 GHz with 3.3 GHz turbo capability. The platform includes 64 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory across 24 DIMM slots and supports up to 1.5 TB total capacity.

Suits virtualisation and database clusters needing

This server suits teams running virtual desktop infrastructure, databases, data warehousing or high-performance computing nodes that benefit from eight 2.4 TB 10K SAS drives on a PERC H730 RAID controller. Buyers who need more than two processors, more than 1.5 TB of memory, or storage interfaces other than SAS and SATA should evaluate a different platform.

Eight 2.4 TB 10K SAS drives on PERC H730 controller

The critical specification is the storage subsystem: eight enterprise 2.4 TB 10K SAS hard drives connected to a Dell PERC H730 1 GB controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through modes. This combination determines whether the I/O profile matches the target workload.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the PERC H730 controller sees all eight 2.4TB SAS drives after the first boot?

During POST press the controller key combination to enter the H730 BIOS utility; the Virtual Disk Management screen will list each 2.4TB drive and the configured RAID level.

Which components are included in the shipment and what must I source separately?

The server ships with two Xeon E5-2680 v3 processors, four 16GB DDR4 2133MHz RDIMMs, the H730 1GB controller with battery, eight 2.4TB 10K SAS drives, the X520/I350 quad-port network card, iDRAC8 Enterprise, two 750W platinum PSUs, ready rails and a front bezel; you only need to add an operating system and any extra memory or drives.

Should I choose the 64GB configuration or add more DDR4 modules up to the 1.5TB maximum?

The current 64GB (four 16GB modules) leaves 20 of 24 slots free; add matching DDR4 2133MHz registered ECC RDIMMs in multiples of four if your workloads require more than 64GB.
