Dell PowerEdge R730 8x3.5" Server
This Dell PowerEdge R730 is a 2U rack-mount server system built for data-centre workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2620 v3 processors running at 2.4GHz and 256GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. The chassis supports up to eight 3.5-inch SATA drive bays and includes a PERC H730 SAS RAID controller. Remote management is handled by iDRAC8 with an Enterprise licence.
Ideal for virtualisation hosts and database nodes
The dual six-core CPUs and large memory capacity suit virtualisation clusters, database servers and compute-heavy applications that benefit from 768GB maximum RAM. The eight-bay 3.5-inch layout fits high-capacity SATA storage arrays. Buyers who need more than two sockets, faster networking than the installed 10GbE and 1GbE ports, or GPU acceleration should evaluate other platforms.
PERC H730 SAS RAID controller decides storage
The integrated PERC H730 SAS controller manages RAID across the eight 3.5-inch bays and determines which drive types and array levels are supported. Confirm that this controller matches your redundancy and performance requirements before purchase.
