Enterprise rack server for virtualization

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack system built for midsize and large enterprises running data warehouses, e-commerce platforms, virtual desktop infrastructure, databases and high-performance computing nodes. Two Intel Xeon E5-2680 v4 processors provide 28 cores total at 2.4 GHz base clock with 3.3 GHz turbo capability. 256 GB of DDR4 2400 MHz registered ECC memory across eight 32 GB modules supports memory-intensive workloads.

Installation uses standard rails and hot-swap bays

The server ships with ready rails and a front bezel for straightforward rack mounting. Ten 2.5-inch drive bays accept SAS or SATA drives with hot-swap capability while the system runs. Dual 750-watt platinum power supplies provide redundant hot-swap power. iDRAC 8 Enterprise enables remote management for deployment and monitoring without physical access. The PERC H730 controller requires configuration for RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 or 60 before array initialization.

SAS 12 Gb/s interface limits drive throughput

The storage controller and drives operate at 12 Gb/s SAS speed, which caps maximum sequential transfer rates per drive. Ten 600 GB 10K SAS drives deliver high IOPS for random workloads but total raw capacity is limited to 6 TB before RAID overhead. Network connectivity uses two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports via the X520/I350 daughter card. Maximum memory capacity reaches 1.5 TB across 24 DIMM slots for future expansion.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the two Xeon E5-2680 v4 14-core CPUs and 256GB DDR4 are recognised after power-on?

During POST the BIOS lists both processors at 2.4GHz with 14 cores each and shows 256GB (8x 32GB) DDR4 2400MHz Registered ECC; iDRAC8 Enterprise then reports identical CPU and memory inventory in its System Overview.

Which items ship with the server and which must be sourced separately?

Included are the 2U chassis with bezel, ready rails, 2x Xeon E5-2680 v4 CPUs, 256GB DDR4, PERC H730 1GB controller, 10x 600GB 10K SAS 2.5" drives, X520/I350 quad-port 2x 1GbE 2x 10Gb SFP+ card, iDRAC8 Enterprise and 2x 750W platinum PSUs; only SFP+ transceivers and OS licences are not supplied.

Should I choose the 8-bay 2.5" SAS configuration or a different drive count for this R730?

This unit is the 8-bay 2.5" model populated with 10x 600GB 10K SAS drives (8 internal bays plus 2 rear bays) on the PERC H730; select it when you need high IOPS density in 2U, otherwise a 12-bay 3.5" variant would suit capacity-focused workloads.
