Server foundation for virtualised workloads

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server equipped with a single Intel Xeon E5-2630v3 eight-core processor running at 2.4GHz and 64GB of DDR4 memory. It ships with two 1TB 7.2K SATA drives managed by a PERC H330 RAID controller supporting levels 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60. Dual 750W redundant power supplies and iDRAC8 remote management complete the platform for small-to-mid virtualisation clusters.

Straightforward rack mounting and drive expansion

The chassis accepts up to eight 2.5-inch hot-plug SAS or SATA drives in tool-less carriers, so adding capacity only requires sliding trays into the front bays. Memory installation uses 24 DIMM slots, twelve per processor, and the single CPU currently populated leaves the second socket open for a matching Xeon. PCIe 3.0 slots plus a dedicated PERC slot are accessible after removing the top cover, while the DVD-ROM sits in a standard slim bay.

Steady throughput with redundant power

Dual 750W supplies share the load and keep the system running if one unit fails, which is critical during extended backup windows or database rebuilds. The H330 controller sustains mixed read-write patterns across the RAID array without the write-hole exposure of parity-only levels. iDRAC8 provides continuous sensor telemetry so thermal trends and fan speeds can be monitored remotely before they affect uptime.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the server is running correctly after installation?

Check iDRAC8 for system health, verify both 750W power supplies show green LEDs, confirm the H330 controller detects the 2x 1TB SATA drives in RAID, and ensure all 64GB DDR4 memory is reported in POST.

What components are included and what must be purchased separately?

Includes single E5-2630v3 8C 2.4GHz CPU, 64GB DDR4 RAM, 2x 1TB 7.2K 2.5'' SATA drives with trays, H330 RAID controller, 2x 750W redundant PSUs, DVD drive, 4x 1GbE daughter card, rails. OS not included.

Which memory capacity should I choose for this R730 configuration?

The server has 24 DIMM slots supporting DDR4 up to 2400MT/s. Current 64GB uses some slots; maximum is 1536GB with dual CPUs. Add 4GB, 8GB, 16GB, 32GB, 64GB or 128GB DDR4 modules in matched sets per processor.
