Dual Xeon 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rackmount server fitted with two Intel Xeon E5-2620 v3 processors running at 2.4 GHz with 6 cores each. It ships with 768 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory across 24 slots and a PERC H730 storage controller with 1 GB cache. Ten 600 GB 10K SAS drives populate the 2.5-inch bays. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC 8 Enterprise remote management are included.

Upgrade from single-socket or lower-capacity systems

This configuration replaces single-processor servers or dual-socket units with fewer cores and less memory when workloads demand more simultaneous threads and larger in-memory datasets. The jump is worth it for virtualisation hosts, database nodes or VDI clusters that exceed the CPU core count or 768 GB ceiling of smaller platforms. The 24 DIMM slots allow expansion to 1.5 TB without changing the chassis.

768 GB DDR4 and ten 600 GB SAS drives

The installed 768 GB handles large virtual-machine counts, in-memory databases and heavy VDI sessions with headroom for growth to 1.5 TB via the remaining slots. Ten 600 GB 10K SAS drives deliver high IOPS for transactional workloads and RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 flexibility. Capacity runs out when datasets exceed the 6 TB raw array or when memory pressure pushes beyond 1.5 TB.

Questions about this item

How much rack height does this 2U server need and what rails are included?

The server occupies 2U of rack space and ships with Ready Rails for tool-less mounting in standard cabinets.

What is the correct order for installing the two Xeon E5-2620 v3 processors and the 24 DDR4 memory modules?

Install both processors first, then populate all 24 slots with the 32GB DDR4 2133MHz Registered ECC modules for the full 768GB configuration.

Which components use the PERC H730 battery and the hot-swap power supplies, and when should they be replaced?

The PERC H730 1GB controller battery backs the RAID cache and the two 750 Watt Platinum PSUs are hot-swappable; replace the battery when iDRAC 8 reports a degradation alert and swap a PSU immediately if its status LED turns amber.
