Purpose-built 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rackmount system equipped with dual Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 eight-core processors running at 2.4 GHz. It ships with 16 GB of DDR4 memory across 24 DIMM slots and eight 300 GB 15K SAS drives managed by a PERC H330 RAID controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60. Dual 750 W redundant power supplies and a DVD-ROM drive complete the configuration.

Ideal for dense virtualisation hosts

This server suits organisations that need a high core count and fast 15K SAS storage in a compact 2U form factor for virtualisation, database or application workloads. The four onboard 1 GbE ports handle standard network traffic, while seven PCIe 3.0 slots allow expansion for specialised I/O. Buyers who require more than 16 GB of memory from day one, who need 10 GbE networking without adding a card, or who want faster storage interfaces should evaluate other platforms.

Memory ceiling fixed at 16 GB

The installed memory is 16 GB and the specification lists the maximum memory capacity as 16 GB, so no further DDR4 modules can be added without replacing the existing configuration. This hard limit determines whether the R730 can meet the workload’s memory footprint before purchase.

Questions about this item

Will the dual E5-2630v3 CPUs at 2.4 GHz work with my existing DDR4 RDIMMs if I populate the remaining slots?

The system has 24 DIMM slots total, 12 per processor, and supports DDR4 up to 2400 MT/s. Actual memory speed depends on the installed processor capability.

How can I confirm the H330 controller is managing all eight 300 GB SAS drives correctly after setup?

Use the iDRAC8 with Lifecycle Controller to view RAID status, drive health and virtual disk configuration through the web interface or during POST.

Which items are included in the box and what must be purchased separately?

The server includes 2x E5-2630v3 CPUs, 16 GB DDR4, 8x 300 GB 15K SAS drives with trays, H330 RAID controller, 2x 750 W redundant power supplies, DVD drive and 4x 1 GbE daughter card. Operating system and any additional drives, memory or NDC upgrades are not included.
