8-Bay Rack Server with Xeon E5-2643 v3
The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack-mount server fitted with one Intel Xeon E5-2643 v3 processor running at 3.4 GHz and 384 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. It uses a PERC H730 SAS controller and provides eight 3.5-inch drive bays for SATA or SAS storage. The system ships without drives and includes dual 495 W power supplies.
Suited for memory-heavy workloads.
This configuration targets applications that benefit from large memory capacity such as virtualisation hosts, in-memory databases or compute nodes with modest thread requirements. The single six-core processor limits parallel throughput, so buyers who need many cores per socket or a second CPU installed should look at a different configuration.
Verify rack depth, power and drive cabling
Confirm that your rack can accommodate the 36-inch depth and that 10 A circuits are available for the redundant supplies. The PERC H730 uses internal SAS connectors, so ensure you have compatible backplane cables or a drive tray kit. Network uplinks use 10 GbE and 1 GbE ports on an Intel I350/X540 card.

Questions about this item
What drive caddies are required for the 3.5 inch bays?
The chassis accepts eight 3.5 inch drives using Dell 3.5 inch LFF caddies that match the PERC H730 SAS backplane.
Can the existing PERC H730 RAID controller manage SATA SSDs together with mechanical drives?
Yes, the PERC H730 supports mixed SATA SSD and HDD arrays across the eight 3.5 inch bays.
How do I confirm the 384 GB DDR4 ECC memory is recognised after installation?
Check the iDRAC8 Enterprise interface or POST memory test; both will report 384 GB DDR4 ECC Registered across the populated DIMM slots.
