Dual 18-core Xeon server with 768 GB DDR4
The Dell PowerEdge R730 arrives in an 8-bay 3.5-inch rack chassis populated with two Xeon E5-2699 v3 processors running at 2.3 GHz. Each CPU delivers 18 cores and 45 MB cache, giving 36 cores total for heavily threaded workloads. Memory is maxed at 768 GB of DDR4 ECC registered DIMMs. A PERC H730 SAS controller manages storage and the system includes iDRAC8 Enterprise for remote administration.
Suited for memory-heavy workloads.
This configuration targets virtualization hosts, database nodes and compute clusters that benefit from high core counts and large memory capacity. The integrated graphics and lack of discrete GPU support make it a poor fit for visualisation, rendering or GPU-accelerated analytics. Buyers needing PCIe accelerator cards should verify slot availability before ordering.
8-bay 3.5-inch chassis limits internal storage
Eight 3.5-inch bays connect to the PERC H730 controller over SAS and SATA interfaces. No drives are installed, so capacity and RAID level are chosen at deployment. The bay count is fixed and cannot be expanded internally, so workloads requiring more than eight spindles need external enclosures or a different platform.

Questions about this item
What drive type and interface do the eight 3.5-inch bays support?
The eight 3.5-inch bays accept SATA hard drives or SSDs connected to the PERC H730 SAS controller.
Will the iDRAC8 Enterprise remote management work with the Intel I350 and X540 network adapters installed?
iDRAC8 uses its own dedicated management port and operates independently of the I350 and X540 data-plane adapters.
How can I confirm the full 768 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory is detected after power-on?
During POST the BIOS memory test counts 768 GB, and iDRAC8 System > Inventory shows all DIMM slots populated with registered ECC modules.
