Dell PowerEdge R730 8SFF Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server populated with two Intel Xeon E5-2690 v3 processors at 2.6GHz and 768GB DDR4 ECC registered memory. It includes a PERC H730 SAS controller supporting eight 2.5-inch drive bays and dual 495W power supplies. Integrated iDRAC8 Enterprise enables full remote management.

Suits memory-heavy virtualization.

This configuration targets virtualization hosts, database nodes, or compute clusters that need maximum RAM within the 768GB ceiling and twelve cores per socket. Buyers who want operating system drives or data volumes pre-installed must add drives separately because the chassis ships empty. The eight-bay limit also rules out high-count local storage arrays.

Max memory fixed at 768GB DDR4

Installed memory already reaches the system maximum of 768GB, so no further RAM upgrades are possible. The PERC H730 controller manages SAS or SATA drives across the eight bays, and the network card provides two 10GbE plus two 1GbE ports. Firmware is updated to the latest stable release before shipment.

Questions about this item

What rack depth and width does the R730 8SFF chassis require?

The unit measures 36 in deep, 24 in wide and 10 in high, so the rack must provide at least that clearance plus cable space.

How are the two Xeon E5-2690 v3 processors and 768 GB DDR4 installed, and what step is often missed?

Both CPUs and all memory slots are already populated from the factory; the common oversight is forgetting to seat the PERC H730 RAID controller firmware update before first boot.

Which components will need replacement first in the R730 8SFF?

The two 495 W power supplies and the cooling fans are the primary field-replaceable units that wear over time.
