Dell PERC H730 RAID Controller

The Dell PERC H730 is a 12Gbps SAS/SATA RAID controller card that installs in a PCI-Express 3.0 x8 slot. It provides essential RAID levels and non-RAID passthrough modes for connecting hard drives and solid-state drives. The card includes 1GB of NV cache to accelerate write performance. It is suited for servers needing direct-attached storage management.

Sustained operation at 12Gbps within 0°C to 55°C

The controller maintains its 12Gbps link speed across the rated 0°C to 55°C operating temperature range. The 1GB NV cache absorbs write bursts during heavy I/O, helping sustain throughput without throttling. Class 10/100M management traffic runs independently of the data path. Buyers who need cache protection beyond the onboard NV cache should verify external backup options.

PCI-Express 3.0 x8 installation and cabling

The half-height card seats in any PCI-Express 3.0 x8 or wider slot and draws power from the slot itself. Internal SAS/SATA connectors accept standard breakout cables for drive backplanes or direct drive attachment. No driver media is included; firmware and drivers must be downloaded from the vendor support site. Installers who lack compatible cables or a free x8 slot will need additional parts.
