Dual-socket Xeon 18-core server for enterprise

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2699 v3 processors, each running at 2.3 GHz with 18 cores. It ships with 64 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across four modules and includes a PERC H730 storage controller with 1 GB cache. Two 800 GB SATA SSDs are installed in the 2.5-inch drive bays. This configuration targets midsize to large enterprises running databases, virtualisation or high-performance computing tasks.

Rail kit and hot-swap components simplify rack

The system arrives with ready rails and a front bezel for standard rack mounting. Redundant 750-watt platinum power supplies and hot-swap drive bays allow component replacement without downtime. The PERC H730 controller supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. Common issues include verifying the controller firmware matches the SSD firmware and ensuring the iDRAC8 Enterprise licence is activated for remote management.

Confirm rack depth, network cabling

Before ordering, check that your rack accommodates a 2U chassis with the included rail kit depth. The network daughter card provides two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports, so plan SFP+ transceivers and cabling accordingly. Memory capacity can scale to 1.5 TB across 24 DIMM slots; verify your workload fits within the current 64 GB or budget for additional DDR4 registered ECC modules.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the PERC H730 controller is operating correctly after installing the two 800GB SSDs?

During POST the controller BIOS will display the H730 firmware version and list both 800GB drives in the virtual-disk configuration; the iDRAC8 Enterprise dashboard then shows each drive as "Online" with green status LEDs on the front 2.5" bays.

Which components are included and which must be purchased separately for this 2U rack server?

The shipment contains the R730 chassis with bezel, two E5-2699 v3 18-core CPUs, 64GB DDR4 (4×16GB), PERC H730 1GB controller, two 800GB SATA SSDs, X520/I350 quad-port network daughter card, iDRAC8 Enterprise, two 750W PSUs and ReadyRails; additional DDR4 modules, drives or GPU cards are not supplied.

Should I choose a different memory capacity or drive configuration for this specific build?

This unit is already configured with the maximum two CPUs, 64GB DDR4 across 24 slots (expandable to 1.5TB) and two 800GB SSDs in the 8-bay 2.5" backplane; select this version if the current CPU, memory and SSD specification matches the workload.
