Rack server for virtualisation workloads

The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 eight-core processor running at 2.4 GHz. It ships with 8 GB of DDR4 memory across 24 DIMM slots and includes a PERC H330 RAID controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60. Eight 3.5-inch hot-plug drive bays accept SAS or SATA drives for flexible storage capacity.

Sustained multi-threaded performance

With sixteen logical threads available through hyper-threading, the Xeon E5-2630 v3 maintains consistent throughput for virtualisation hosts, database servers and batch-processing jobs. The platform supports up to two processors and a maximum of 1536 GB of DDR4 memory at 2400 MT/s, allowing the system to scale as workload demands grow. Seven PCIe 3.0 slots plus a dedicated PERC slot provide room for additional network or storage adapters.

Dual redundant power and remote management

Two 750 W hot-swap power supplies deliver redundancy for continuous operation in rack environments. The integrated iDRAC8 with Lifecycle Controller enables out-of-band monitoring, firmware updates and remote console access without an operating system. A Matrox G200 graphics controller with 8 MB cache handles basic video output, while a DVD-ROM drive and four 1 GbE ports on the daughter card complete the baseline connectivity.

Questions about this item

How loud and hot does the R730 run with its dual 750W redundant power supplies under continuous load?

The server includes two 750W hot-swap power supplies in a 2U chassis with redundant cooling; fan speed scales with CPU and drive temperatures so acoustic output rises with sustained workload.

Which drives and caddies must I supply to populate the eight 3.5-inch hot-plug bays?

The bays accept 3.5-inch SAS or SATA drives and the H330 controller supports RAID 0/1/5/10/50/60; no drives or trays are included so you must provide both.

Will my existing PCIe 3.0 add-in cards fit the R730’s expansion slots alongside the dedicated PERC slot?

The chassis offers up to seven PCIe 3.0 slots plus a dedicated PERC slot, so current-generation PCIe 3.0 cards install directly without adapters.
