2U rack server with Xeon E5-2609 v3

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2609 v3 six-core processor running at 1.9 GHz. It ships with 8 GB of DDR4 memory, two 900 GB 10K SAS drives and a PERC H730 RAID controller with 1 GB cache. Dual 750 W redundant power supplies and eight 2.5-inch hot-plug bays complete the baseline configuration.

Suits small virtualisation hosts.

This server fits organisations that need a compact, redundant platform for light virtualisation, file serving or legacy applications. The single-socket layout and 8 GB installed memory limit immediate capacity, so buyers who need more compute threads or larger memory footprints from day one should look at a different starting configuration.

24 DDR4 DIMM slots with 1536 GB maximum

The board provides 24 DIMM slots, twelve per processor socket, supporting DDR4 modules up to 2400 MT/s and a total memory ceiling of 1536 GB when both sockets are populated. This single figure determines whether the chassis can grow into the workload you have planned.

Questions about this item

Will the existing DDR4 modules I keep from an older server fit the 24 DIMM slots in this R730?

Yes, the 24 slots accept DDR4 modules of 4GB, 8GB, 16GB, 32GB, 64GB or 128GB up to 2400MT/s; actual speed depends on the installed Xeon E5-2609 v3 processor capability.

How can I confirm the PERC H730 RAID controller is operating correctly after installation?

During POST the H730 BIOS reports its 1GB cache and 12Gbps SAS link; afterwards iDRAC8 Lifecycle Controller shows controller firmware version, battery status and the configured RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 or 60 virtual disks.

Which items ship inside the box and what must I purchase separately?

The chassis includes one Xeon E5-2609 v3 CPU, 8GB DDR4, two 900GB 10K 2.5" SAS drives with trays, H730 RAID card, two 750W redundant PSUs, DVD-ROM, four 1GbE ports on the daughter card and iDRAC8 Express; OS licences, extra CPUs, memory, drives, 10GbE NDC or vFlash upgrades are sold separately.
