Dell PowerEdge R730 8LFF dual Xeon server
This Dell PowerEdge R730 rack server arrives new with two Xeon E5-2630 v4 processors running at 2.2 GHz, each providing 10 cores and 25 MB cache. The system includes 384 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC H730 SAS controller supporting up to eight 3.5-inch SATA drive bays. Dual 495 W power supplies and iDRAC8 Enterprise remote management complete the baseline configuration.
Suits virtualisation hosts needing high core count
Buyers who need more than 768 GB of RAM or who require a different drive interface should evaluate other platforms. The eight-bay 3.5-inch chassis also limits total raw storage compared with 24-bay or 2.5-inch dense configurations.
Maximum memory capacity is 768 GB DDR4
The installed 384 GB fills half the available slots, leaving room to double the memory without replacing modules. This ceiling is the single figure that determines whether the server can grow with your workload.

Questions about this item
What SAS speed does the PERC H730 RAID controller support, and how does that cap drive throughput?
The PERC H730 SAS controller runs at 12 Gb/s per lane, so each attached drive is limited to that link speed regardless of its own rating.
What chassis clearance and rail depth does the 8-bay 3.5" rack unit require?
The server measures 36 in deep, 24 in wide and 10 in high, so allow at least 36 in of rail depth plus cable bend radius behind the rack.
How are firmware and BIOS updated before shipment, and what step do installers often skip?
Units ship with BIOS and firmware already updated to the latest stable release; the step often missed is re-running the lifecycle controller job after the first boot to lock in the new versions.
