Target workloads

The PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server built for virtualization, database and general compute tasks. Dual six-core Xeon processors at 1.9 GHz deliver twelve threads for parallel workloads. Sixteen gigabytes of DDR4 memory support modest consolidation. Two 900 GB 10K SAS drives on a H730 RAID controller provide redundant local storage. Redundant 750 W power supplies and hot-plug bays suit continuous-operation environments.

Memory ceiling

Installed memory is fixed at 16 GB across twenty-four DIMM slots. The platform accepts DDR4 modules up to 2400 MT/s, yet the populated capacity cannot be expanded beyond the shipped amount. Buyers who need more RAM must select a different configuration at purchase time. This constraint defines whether the system fits the intended application.

Sustained operation

Redundant hot-swap power supplies and eight hot-plug drive bays allow component replacement without downtime. The H730 controller maintains RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 arrays under continuous I/O. iDRAC8 remote management enables monitoring and firmware updates while the server remains in production. These features keep the platform available during prolonged, steady-state loads.

Questions about this item

What does the dual 1.9 GHz Xeon configuration mean for actual workloads?

Two six-core E5-2609v3 CPUs at 1.9 GHz give 12 total threads for parallel tasks such as virtualisation hosts or database servers.

How does the H730 controller limit drive performance?

The PERC H730 runs at 12 Gbps SAS and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60, capping array throughput to the controller link speed.

What clearance and power connections does the 2U chassis need?

The unit measures 26.8 inches deep, 17.44 inches wide and 3.4 inches high, weighs 58 lbs, and requires two 750 W redundant supplies.
