Dell PowerEdge R730 8-bay server

This Dell PowerEdge R730 rack server ships with one Intel Xeon E5-2620 v3 processor running at 2.4GHz and 256GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. The 8x3.5" chassis supports up to eight SATA or SAS drives through the PERC H730 RAID controller. Dual 495W power supplies and iDRAC8 Enterprise remote management come installed.

Suits virtualization hosts needing dense memory

The single CPU and 256GB RAM fit modest virtualization clusters or database nodes that prioritise memory capacity over core count. Buyers who need dual-processor performance or the maximum 768GB memory ceiling should look at a different configuration.

PERC H730 RAID controller with eight 3.5" bays

The integrated PERC H730 SAS controller drives all eight 3.5" drive bays and provides hardware RAID for SATA or SAS disks. No drives are included so the buyer must supply compatible storage to complete the array.

Questions about this item

Will the single E5-2620 v3 at 2.4GHz leave enough headroom if I add a second processor later?

The R730 supports up to two processors, so a second E5-2620 v3 can be installed in the empty socket when workload demands grow.

How can I verify the PERC H730 controller and 256GB DDR4 are recognised after first boot?

Enter the iDRAC8 interface or BIOS POST screen; both will list the H730 RAID controller and show 256GB of registered ECC DDR4 across the memory slots.

The listing says no drives are installed — what else must I source to get the 8-bay 3.5" chassis operational?

You will need to purchase 3.5" SATA drives for the eight bays and, if not already fitted, a rail kit for rack mounting; the server already includes dual 495W supplies, the H730 controller and 256GB DDR4.
