Rack server for virtualisation workloads
The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack-mount server system delivered in new condition. It ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2683 v4 processor running at 2.1GHz and 256GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. The chassis provides eight 2.5-inch drive bays and includes a PERC H730 SAS RAID controller with iDRAC8 Enterprise remote management.
Suited for memory-intensive applications.
This configuration suits environments that need large memory capacity per socket and flexible SAS storage expansion up to the 768GB maximum. Organisations requiring dual-processor performance from day one or workloads dependent on discrete GPU acceleration should evaluate alternative platforms.
Eight 2.5-inch SAS bays define storage options
The server supports up to eight small-form-factor SAS drives through the integrated PERC H730 controller. No drives are installed, so buyers must provision compatible SAS media to match capacity and redundancy requirements.

Questions about this item
How loud and hot does the dual 495 W power supply run under continuous load?
The system ships with two 495 W supplies; fan speed and thermal output scale with total power draw, so sustained full-load operation will run the fans at higher RPM and exhaust more heat than idle.
Which drives and caddies must I supply to populate the eight 2.5-inch SAS bays?
No drives or drive caddies are included; you need up to eight 2.5-inch SAS HDDs or SSDs plus matching Dell 2.5-inch drive trays for the 8SFF backplane.
Will the PERC H730 RAID controller and iDRAC8 work with my existing 12th-generation Dell rack rails and management scripts?
The H730 and iDRAC8 Enterprise are standard 12th-gen components, so they are compatible with Dell 12G sliding rails and existing iDRAC8 automation.
