DELL PowerEdge R730 2U rack server

The DELL PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server built for data-centre workloads. It ships with dual Intel Xeon E5-2650 v3 processors, each with 10 cores at 2.3GHz, and 16GB of DDR4 memory. The system includes a PERC H730 RAID controller and two 300GB 15K SAS drives in an 8-bay hot-plug chassis.

Ideal for virtualisation hosts and database nodes

This configuration suits teams that need dense compute and fast local storage in a standard rack footprint. Buyers who need more than 16GB of memory or additional drive bays beyond the eight 2.5-inch slots should evaluate larger platforms. The installed 750W redundant power supplies support the current build but limit further high-power add-in cards.

Maximum memory capacity 16GB installed

The server arrives with 16GB of DDR4 across 24 DIMM slots, and the supplier specification lists the maximum memory capacity as 16GB. Any deployment requiring more RAM cannot use this unit as described. Memory speed runs up to 2400MT/s depending on the processor capability.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 2.5-inch SAS drives into the hot-plug bays, and what step is often missed?

Slide each drive into a bay until the latch clicks; the step often missed is creating the virtual disk in the H730 RAID BIOS before the OS sees any volume.

Which components will need replacement first during the server's life?

The two 300 GB 15K SAS drives and the 750 W redundant power supplies are the moving parts most likely to require replacement.

What limit appears first when the dual E5-2650 v3 CPUs run sustained workloads?

The 16 GB DDR4 memory ceiling is reached before the 40-thread CPU capacity, capping performance on memory-heavy tasks.
