Rack server with dual Xeon processors
The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack-mount server designed for data-centre workloads that demand dual-socket performance. Two Intel Xeon E5-2623 v3 CPUs running at 3 GHz provide eight total cores for virtualisation, database or application hosting. The platform ships new with firmware already updated to the latest stable release.
256 GB DDR4 with room to 768 GB
Installed memory totals 256 GB of DDR4 ECC registered DIMMs, giving ample headroom for moderate consolidation or in-memory workloads. Four additional memory slots remain open, allowing expansion up to the platform maximum of 768 GB when demand grows. The PERC H730 SAS controller manages up to eight 3.5-inch SATA drives, though no drives are included in this configuration.
Dual 495 W supplies and iDRAC8 Enterprise
Redundant 495-watt power supplies keep the system running through a single-unit failure, while the integrated iDRAC8 Enterprise licence enables full out-of-band management without extra licensing cost. The chassis includes a quad-port network card delivering two 10 GbE and two 1 GbE connections for flexible fabric integration. Rails are available separately for rack installation.

Questions about this item
Will my existing 3.5" SAS drives work with the PERC H730 controller in this R730?
Yes, the PERC H730 SAS controller supports SAS and SATA drives in the eight 3.5-inch bays, so current 3.5" SAS drives can be installed directly.
How can I verify the dual Xeon E5-2623 v3 CPUs and 256GB DDR4 are recognised after first boot?
Open the iDRAC8 Enterprise interface or enter the BIOS; both will show two processors at 3GHz and the full 256GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory.
Does the server ship with drive caddies and rails, or must I order them separately?
The unit includes two 495W power supplies and the PERC H730 card; drive caddies for the 3.5-inch bays and a rail kit are not included and must be purchased separately.
