Deliver peak performance

Accelerate your applications with the latest Intel® Xeon® processor E5-2600 v4 product family and boost memory and I/O performance with:

• DDR4 memory that provides as much as 15 percent greater memory bandwidth than previous-generation DDR3 RAM
• 12 DIMM slots that enable you to expand memory capacity as needed
• Six PCIe Gen3 slots that deliver twice the data throughput compared to PCIe Gen2

Scale and adapt with greater versatility

A highly flexible design lets you deploy server performance where it’s needed and adapt as your requirements change over time.

• Install the T430 in a range of environments, thanks to a rackable tower design, short 22-inch depth and quiet acoustics.
• Expand your storage with your choice of internal hard-drive form factors and capacities, while protecting data with RAID options.
• Adapt to evolving workload demands with an expandable, virtualization-ready platform.

Maximize operational efficiency

Save time and reduce potential for error with simplified, intuitive systems management, and help reduce costs with energy-efficient features.

• Simplify administration by automating deployment, management and updates with the integrated Dell Remote Access Controller 8 (iDRAC8) with Lifecycle Controller.
• Control server availability more effectively by monitoring and managing the health and availability of PowerEdge servers anytime, anywhere through OpenManage Mobile and a handheld device.
• Harness your budget with energy-efficient processors, memory and power supplies. Fresh Air 2.0 configurations allow you to operate at extended temperatures without chilled air.

Tackle almost any workload

The incredible versatility of the PowerEdge R730 server delivers outstanding functionality in just 2U of rack space. With the combination of powerful processors, large memory, fast storage options and GPU accelerator support, the R730 performs exceptionally well in a number of demanding environments.

Virtualization and cloud applications

With the Intel® Xeon® processor E5-2600 v4 product family and up to 24 DIMMs of DDR4 RAM, the R730 has the processing cycles and threads and large memory footprint necessary to deliver more, larger and higher-performing virtual machines for data centers and cloud platforms.

Highly scalable storage, with up to 16 x 12Gb SAS drives and the high-performance 12Gb PowerEdge RAID Controller (PERC9), can greatly accelerate data access for your virtualized environment. In addition, the R730 can take advantage of optional SanDisk® DAS Cache application acceleration technology for even faster data access.

VDI and HPC

The option for up to two 300W dual-width accelerators/GPUs (choose from Intel® Xeon Phi™, NVIDIA® Tesla® and AMD FirePro™) supports environments that require processing acceleration, including graphics-intensive virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) implementations, such as CAD/CAM and other research and development applications. Seven PCIe Gen3 expansion slots plus a dedicated slot for a RAID controller further enhance IO flexibility to help make the R730 an ideal compute node for IT as a service (XaaS) providers as well as high-performance computing (HPC) and medical-imaging solutions.

Reliable business processing and decision support

The popular-sized 2S/2U R730 can be easily configured as a reliable, general-purpose server for business-critical applications, with scale-out storage, automated management and high-availability features, such as:
• Redundant power supply units (PSUs)
• Hot-plug and swappable PSUs, HDDs and fans
• Dual SD card option for failsafe hypervisors

Affordable density for Dell servers

When it comes to expanding DAS in your server deployment, there are several important questions to consider:
How much space do you need?
How quickly you can add more storage?
How can you add capacity while keeping power and cooling costs under control?
Your answer is the Dell PowerVault MD3060e dense enclosure, or JBOD (just a bunch of disks). The high-density storage solution in a compact 4U chassis enables quick expansion for PowerEdge R630, R730 and the R730xd servers while saving space, power and cooling expenses. The versatile design allows you to:Mix and match up to 60 HDDs and SSDs in one chassis Scale to 240 HDDs (with four MD3060e enclosure) per server.

Maximize capacity to 2.4PB per R630 or R730 server3
Store over 2PB of data in less than one-half of a standard rack4

Reliable, versatile performance

The MD3060e offers a high-density option in the PowerVault MD series of JBODs, which have an established record of reliability and efficient performance. Easily manage your data through the host server, with OS support that includes:

Capacity based on your design

Easily scale with versatile enclosure options, drive types and operating system choices, and have the flexibility to design solutions for your specific needs. The MD3060e is a modular platform that allows you to add or reconfigure enclosures, as your workloads require.

Mix and match SAS, NL-SAS HDDs or SSDs to optimize performance or capacity.
Hot-swap drives, fans, enclosure management modules (EMMs) and power supplies for quick modifications and maintenance.
With small-scale-to-hyperscale flexibility, the MD3060e dense enclosure is an ideal solution for:

• Hosting companies that need affordable and dense storage
• Work groups within a large IT organization, such as an R&D department
• Universities or government agencies with high performance computing (HPC) deployments that require high-density storage
• High-bandwidth or modular infrastructures, such as manufacturing, oil and gas, and video surveillance
• Financial institutions that need to process volumes of data without increasing their data center footprint
