8-bay 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack-mount server system built for data-centre and enterprise workloads. It ships with one Intel Xeon E5-2690 v3 processor running at 2.6 GHz and 384 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. The 8 LFF chassis accepts up to eight 3.5-inch SATA or SAS drives and includes a PERC H730 RAID controller. Remote management is handled by iDRAC8 Enterprise.

Virtualisation hosts needing large memory capacity

This configuration suits virtualisation clusters, database servers or compute nodes that benefit from 384 GB of RAM in a single socket. The single 12-core CPU and empty drive bays let you add storage to match the workload. Buyers who need a second processor for heavier parallel workloads or who require flash storage beyond the SAS and SATA interfaces provided by the H730 controller should look at a different platform.

384 GB DDR4 ECC memory

The installed 384 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory fills 24 DIMM slots and leaves room to expand to the platform maximum of 768 GB. This capacity is the primary factor when sizing the server for memory-intensive applications such as in-memory databases or dense virtualisation.

Questions about this item

What rack space and power circuits must I already have to install the R730 8LFF?

The server occupies 2U of rack height and ships with two 495 W power supplies, so you need a 2U opening and two PDU outlets on the same circuit.

Can I keep using my existing 3.5-inch SATA drives with the PERC H730 controller?

Yes, the eight 3.5-inch bays and the PERC H730 SAS controller both support SATA drives, so your current drives will work without an adapter.

How do I confirm the 384 GB DDR4 ECC memory is recognised and healthy after first boot?

Open the iDRAC8 web interface or press F2 at POST; the System Memory page will list all 384 GB as Operational with zero correctable errors.
