2U Rack Server for Virtualisation

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server designed for virtualisation and database workloads. It ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2609 v3 six-core processor running at 1.9GHz. The system includes 64GB of DDR4 memory across 24 DIMM slots and dual 750W redundant power supplies.

Single Processor Limits Expansion

This unit is configured with one E5-2609 v3 CPU, leaving the second socket empty for future upgrades. The installed 64GB DDR4 already reaches the maximum capacity supported by a single processor. Adding more memory requires installing the second Xeon to unlock the remaining 12 DIMM slots.

Sustained Loads Handled by Redundant Power

Dual 750W hot-swap power supplies maintain operation during a single module failure. The H330 RAID controller manages two 1TB 7.2K SATA drives in RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 or 60. Eight 2.5-inch hot-plug bays allow drive replacement without downtime. iDRAC8 remote management enables monitoring and recovery under continuous load.

Questions about this item

How does the single 1.9 GHz six-core Xeon perform in a 2U rack server?

The installed E5-2609 v3 provides six cores at 1.9 GHz. A second processor socket is available on the C610 chipset if additional compute capacity is required.

What does the H330 12Gbps RAID controller limit in practice?

The H330 supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60 across the SATA and SAS drives. It connects via a dedicated PERC slot, leaving the seven PCIe 3.0 slots free for other expansion cards.

What rack depth and bay configuration does the R730 need to fit?

The chassis measures 26.8 inches deep by 17.44 inches wide in a 2U height. It accepts up to eight 2.5-inch hot-plug SAS or SATA drives in the front bays.
