Purpose-Built Compute Node

This Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server equipped with two 18-core Xeon processors running at 2.3 GHz and 512 GB of DDR4 memory. It targets midsize and large enterprises running data warehouses, e-commerce platforms, VDI, databases or HPC data nodes. The PERC H730 controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC8 Enterprise complete the package.

Who It Suits and Who It Does Not

Buyers needing high core counts and large memory capacity in a 2U form factor will match this configuration. The four-port 1 GbE and 10 Gb SFP+ network daughter card covers typical virtualization and database traffic. Organisations requiring more than 1.5 TB of RAM or more than two sockets must look elsewhere. Deployments that depend on drive interfaces or controller features not listed here should verify compatibility first.

Deciding Specification

The installed memory is 512 GB of DDR4 across 16 DIMMs leaving eight slots open for expansion to the 1.5 TB maximum. This single figure determines whether the server fits the workload or whether a higher-capacity platform is required.
