Rack Server 2U 96GB DDR4

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server designed for data centre deployment. It ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2609v3 six-core processor running at 1.9GHz and 96GB of DDR4 memory. Dual 750W redundant power supplies and a PERC H730 RAID controller with 1GB cache are included.

Virtualisation hosts needing PCIe 3.0 slots

This configuration suits workloads that fit within 96GB of memory and up to eight 2.5-inch SAS or SATA drive bays. It provides seven PCIe 3.0 slots plus a dedicated PERC slot for expansion cards. Buyers who require more than one processor installed or more than 96GB of RAM out of the box should evaluate other configurations.

Single Xeon E5-2609v3 six-core CPU

The installed processor is a single Intel Xeon E5-2609v3 with six cores at 1.9GHz. The system board supports a second processor to reach the maximum of two CPUs. Memory speed operates up to 2400MT/s depending on the processor capability. This CPU choice determines the baseline compute performance for the chassis.

Questions about this item

What RAID levels does the H730 12Gbps controller support on this R730?

The H730 controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across the installed 300GB SAS drives and any additional drives added to the 2.5 inch bays.

How much rack depth does the 2U R730 chassis require for the rails?

The chassis measures 26.8 inches deep, so rails must accommodate at least that length plus cable clearance at the rear.

How is the single E5-2609 v3 processor installed in the socket?

Align the processor notches with the socket keys, lower it gently without forcing, then close the retention lever fully; the heat-sink mounts on the four captive screws surrounding the socket.
