Purpose-built rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack-mount server equipped with two 14-core Xeon processors running at 2.4 GHz and 512 GB of DDR4 ECC memory. It targets midsize and large enterprises running data warehouses, virtual desktop infrastructure, databases or high-performance computing nodes.

Compatibility checklist

Verify that your rack provides 2U of vertical space and can supply redundant power to dual 750-watt hot-swap PSUs. Confirm the LGA 2011-3 socket matches any spare CPU inventory and that the 24 DDR4 slots align with your memory expansion plan. Ensure your network fabric accepts two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ connections from the X520/I350 daughter card.

Build and daily operation

The chassis includes ready rails and a front bezel for tool-less rack installation and a clean aisle appearance. Eight 2.5-inch drive bays connect to the PERC H730 controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 with a 1 GB battery-backed cache. iDRAC 8 Enterprise provides dedicated remote management over a separate network interface for out-of-band monitoring and firmware updates.

Questions about this item

Does the server arrive with all 8 drive bays populated or do I need to buy drives separately?

Eight 300 GB 10 K SAS drives are already installed in the 2.5 inch bays, so no additional drives are required for the configured capacity.

Should I choose the 512 GB DDR4 configuration or add more memory later?

The system includes 16 modules of 32 GB DDR4 2400 MHz registered ECC for 512 GB total; 8 slots remain free for expansion up to 1.5 TB if workloads demand it.

What does the 2.4 GHz base clock mean for real-world throughput with Turbo enabled?

Each of the 28 cores runs at 2.4 GHz base and can boost to 3.3 GHz under load, giving higher single-thread performance when thermal headroom allows.
