2U rack server for virtualised 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 two 300 GB 15K SAS drives on a PERC H330 controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60. The chassis holds up to eight 2.5-inch hot-plug bays and includes redundant 750 W power supplies.

Tool-less drive access and CPU upgrade path

Hot-plug drive trays slide into the front bays without tools, and the PERC H330 occupies a dedicated slot leaving seven PCIe 3.0 slots free. A second processor can be added to the empty socket to double core count and unlock the remaining 12 DIMM slots. The iDRAC8 Express module provides out-of-band management from first boot, though the Enterprise licence and vFlash media are optional upgrades.

Steady throughput with redundant power

Dual 750 W supplies share the load so the server maintains full performance if one unit fails or is replaced. The 15K SAS drives deliver consistent random I/O for databases and virtualisation hosts, while the H330 controller sustains parity rebuilds without throttling. Four onboard 1 GbE ports handle management and tenant traffic, with optional 10 GbE daughter cards available for heavier east-west flows.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the iDRAC8 remote management is working after initial setup?

Connect to the iDRAC8 Express IP address through a browser; the Lifecycle Controller dashboard will display the single E5-2630 v3 processor, 8 GB DDR4, two 300 GB SAS drives and the H330 RAID status.

What components are included and which must be purchased separately?

The server ships with one E5-2630 v3 CPU, 8 GB DDR4, two 300 GB 15K SAS drives in hot-plug trays, H330 RAID controller, DVD-ROM, dual 750 W redundant supplies and a 4-port 1 GbE daughter card; operating system, additional CPUs, memory modules, drives, 10 GbE NDC and iDRAC8 Enterprise upgrades are not included.

Which memory capacity should I choose for this R730?

The board has 24 DDR4 slots supporting 4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB, 32 GB, 64 GB or 128 GB modules up to 2400 MT/s; installed speed depends on the E5-2630 v3 capability and total capacity can reach 1536 GB with two processors.
