Dual 12-core Xeon rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rackmount server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2680 v3 processors, each running at 2.5 GHz with 12 cores. It includes 64 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across four 16 GB modules. The system ships with a PERC H730 storage controller and two 400 GB SATA solid-state drives.

Virtualisation and database workloads

This server suits organisations running virtual desktop infrastructure, databases, or high-performance computing nodes that benefit from 24 total cores and up to 1.5 TB of memory capacity. Buyers who need more than two processor sockets or storage interfaces beyond SATA and SAS should evaluate alternative platforms.

24 DIMM slots for DDR4 expansion

The chassis provides 24 memory slots supporting DDR4 registered ECC modules up to a 1.5 TB maximum. This capacity ceiling is the primary factor when sizing the system for memory-intensive applications such as large-scale virtualisation or in-memory databases.

Questions about this item

What is the storage controller interface speed and which RAID levels does the PERC H730 support?

The Dell PERC H730 provides a 12Gb/s SAS/SATA interface and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 plus pass-through mode.

What rack depth and mounting hardware are required for the 2U R730 chassis?

The server includes ready rails for standard four-post racks and a front bezel; verify your rack depth accommodates a 2U chassis with cable clearance at the rear.

How is the iDRAC 8 Enterprise configured on first boot and what common step is missed?

Enter the iDRAC setup via F2 at POST, assign a static IP, enable HTTPS, and change the default password — skipping the password change leaves the management port exposed.
