2U Rack Server for Scale-Up Workloads

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2609 v3 six-core processor at 1.9GHz with 8GB of DDR4 memory. It includes a PERC H330 RAID controller and two 2TB 7.2K SAS drives in hot-plug bays. The system targets buyers who need dense internal storage and redundant power in a standard rack footprint.

8GB DDR4 Baseline with 24 DIMM Slots

Installed memory sits at 8GB across 24 DDR4 slots, leaving significant headroom for expansion up to the platform maximum. The dual 2TB SAS drives provide 4TB of redundant or striped capacity via RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 or 60, while the eight 3.5-inch bays support up to 64TB total raw storage. The single CPU limits memory channels to twelve slots until a second processor is added.

Redundant Power and PCIe 3.0 Expansion

Dual 750W hot-swap supplies deliver redundancy without external dependencies. Seven PCIe 3.0 slots plus a dedicated PERC slot accommodate additional controllers, networking or acceleration cards. The iDRAC8 remote management module and four 1GbE ports are integrated, while the Matrox G200eR2 handles basic video output. Buyers needing 10GbE or fibre-channel connectivity must add appropriate daughter cards.

Questions about this item

Will the E5-2609 v3 1.9GHz CPU work with my existing DDR4 2400MT/s modules?

The processor supports DDR4 up to 2400MT/s; installed memory will run at the speed the CPU allows.

How can I confirm the H330 controller sees both 2TB SAS drives after installation?

Open the PERC H330 BIOS utility at boot; both 3.5-inch drives should appear as ready for RAID 0/1/5/10/50/60.

Which items ship with the server and what must I source separately?

The box includes the 2U chassis, one E5-2609 v3 CPU, 8GB DDR4, two 2TB 7.2K SAS drives in trays, H330 controller, DVD-ROM, two 750W redundant power supplies, iDRAC8 Express and four 1GbE ports; rails, OS, extra CPUs, memory, drives and 10GbE daughter cards are not included.
