Single-socket rack server for dense compute

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack-mount system fitted with one Intel Xeon E5-2609 v3 six-core processor running at 1.9 GHz and 64 GB of DDR4 memory. It ships with two 900 GB 10 K SAS drives on a PERC H730 RAID controller that supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Dual 750 W hot-swap power supplies and eight 2.5-inch hot-plug bays provide redundancy and room for additional SAS or SATA drives.

Teams needing redundant power and SAS RAID in 2U

This server suits environments that value dual redundant supplies, hardware RAID across SAS drives and iDRAC8 remote management in a compact rack footprint. It is less suited for workloads that require two processors from day one, more than eight drive bays, or 10 GbE networking without an optional daughter card. The installed memory already reaches the 64 GB ceiling supported by this single-processor configuration.

Single CPU limits memory to 64 GB

The motherboard offers 24 DIMM slots, yet the memory features table lists 64 GB as the maximum capacity for the installed processor. Adding a second Xeon would unlock the full 1 536 GB potential, but with one CPU the 64 GB already installed is the hard limit. Buyers planning larger memory footprints must budget for a second processor.

Questions about this item

What rack depth and clearance does the 2U chassis with 26.8 inch length require?

The chassis is 26.8 inches long, 17.44 inches wide and 3.4 inches high; allow extra depth for cable management and the redundant 750W power supplies at the rear.

Which steps are needed to install the second processor and populate the remaining DIMM slots?

Install a second compatible Xeon processor into the empty socket, then add DDR4 modules in sets of 12 per processor across the 24 slots to enable quad-channel operation.

When should the 900GB 10K SAS drives or the H730 controller battery be replaced?

Monitor the H730 RAID controller alerts and SMART data on the two 900GB 10K SAS drives; replace drives on predictive failure and the controller cache battery per the iDRAC8 lifecycle logs.
