2U rack server with dual Xeon processors

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server built for midsize and large enterprise workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2640 v3 processors, each running at 2.6 GHz with eight cores and a 3.4 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 128 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across eight 16 GB modules and a PERC H730 storage controller with 1 GB cache.

Suits virtualisation and database clusters.

This configuration suits organisations deploying virtualisation hosts, database clusters or VDI environments that benefit from sixteen cores and large memory capacity with room to grow to 1.5 TB. The eight 2.5-inch SAS/SATA drive trays support hard drives only, so buyers needing all-flash arrays or GPU-accelerated workloads should evaluate other platforms.

PERC H730 controller with RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60

The PERC H730 controller provides hardware RAID across all supported levels including RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. It manages the eight internal drive bays using SAS or SATA interfaces and includes a battery-backed cache for data protection during power loss. This single component determines whether the storage topology matches your redundancy and performance requirements.

Questions about this item

Will the 128 GB DDR4 installed across 24 slots handle sustained compute loads?

The server ships with 128 GB DDR4 in eight 16 GB modules leaving sixteen empty slots for expansion up to 1.5 TB.

How much heat and power draw should I expect from dual Xeon E5-2640 v3 CPUs and two 750 W PSUs running continuously?

Dual 8-core Xeon E5-2640 v3 processors at 2.6 GHz with 3.4 GHz turbo draw significant power under full load, cooled by redundant 750 W platinum power supplies.

Which storage drives and networking modules must I supply to make the H730 controller and X520/I350 card operational?

You need 2.5-inch SAS or SATA drives for the eight trays and SFP+ transceivers for the two 10 GbE ports on the X520/I350 daughter card.
