Dell PowerEdge R730 8LFF Server
The Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack-mount server fitted with one Intel Xeon E5-2698 v4 processor running at 2.2 GHz and 384 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. Eight 3.5-inch large-form-factor bays connect to a PERC H730 SAS controller for SATA or SAS drives. iDRAC8 Enterprise provides full remote management.
Who This Suits And Who Should Look Elsewhere
This configuration suits teams that need high memory capacity and internal storage density in a standard 2U chassis. Buyers who need two processors installed, faster than 1 GbE networking without adding cards, or a different drive form factor should evaluate other platforms.
Deciding Specification
The single specification that decides fit is the eight 3.5-inch drive bays paired with the PERC H730 controller; if the workload requires that bay count and SAS/SATA connectivity, this chassis matches, otherwise a different server is required.
