Dell PowerEdge R730 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2650 v3 ten-core processor running at 2.3 GHz. It ships with 8 GB of DDR4 memory and two 2 TB 7.2K SAS drives managed by a PERC H330 RAID controller. Dual 750 W redundant power supplies and eight hot-plug 3.5-inch drive bays complete the platform.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

This configuration fits buyers who need a dense, two-socket-ready chassis with hardware RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 or 60 and room to grow memory across 24 DIMM slots. It does not suit buyers who require more than 8 GB of memory from day one, who need more than two drives installed, or who want an operating system included.

The specification that decides fit

The installed memory is fixed at 8 GB DDR4, though the board provides 24 slots and supports modules up to 128 GB each for a maximum of 1536 GB when both processor sockets are populated.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the single E5-2650 v3 or add a second processor?

The server supports up to two CPUs; the installed ten-core 2.3 GHz Xeon provides 20 threads with hyper-threading, and a second socket is available for future expansion.

What does the 8 GB DDR4 mean for real workloads?

8 GB DDR4 is a minimal starting point; the board has 24 DIMM slots supporting up to 1536 GB total, so memory can be scaled as virtualisation or database demands grow.

How does the H330 12 Gbps RAID controller limit storage performance?

The H330 handles SAS and SATA drives at 12 Gbps and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60; maximum raw capacity is 64 TB across eight 3.5-inch hot-plug bays.
