Dell PowerEdge R730 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 eight-core processor running at 2.4GHz. It ships with 128GB of DDR4 memory across 24 DIMM slots and includes two 300GB 15K SAS drives managed by a PERC H730 RAID controller. Dual 750W redundant power supplies and a DVD-ROM complete the configuration.

Suits virtualisation hosts needing dense memory

This server fits workloads that benefit from 128GB of installed DDR4 and 15K SAS spindles behind a hardware RAID controller with 1GB cache. Buyers who need more than two drive bays populated, a second processor installed, or 10GbE networking out of the box should look at a different configuration.

Single E5-2630 v3 processor limits total memory

The specifications list a maximum memory capacity of 128GB with one CPU, matching the installed amount. Adding a second supported processor would be required to reach the 1536GB platform ceiling, so memory expansion stops at the current 128GB unless the processor count changes.

Questions about this item

Will the PERC H730 controller recognise the two 300 GB SAS drives that come installed?

Yes, the H730 1 GB 12 Gbps RAID controller supports the supplied 300 GB 15K 6 Gbps SAS drives and can configure them in RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 or 60.

Can I keep my existing DDR4 RDIMMs and add them to the 24 DIMM slots alongside the 128 GB already fitted?

The server has 24 slots total, 12 per processor, and supports DDR4 up to 2400 MT/s; populate matching capacities per channel for best performance.

How do I confirm the iDRAC8 remote management is responding after first power-on?

Connect the dedicated iDRAC network port, browse to the DHCP address shown on the front LCD, and log in with the default credentials to reach the Lifecycle Controller dashboard.
