About This Product
Overview
The Dell PERC H730 RAID Controller is a hardware-based storage controller built for Dell PowerEdge servers, including the R630, R730, and R730xd. Designed for PCIe 3.0 environments, it provides a dependable way to manage internal server storage with support for both SAS and SATA drives. This makes it a practical choice for organizations looking to configure server storage around performance, redundancy, or a balance of both. With 12Gb/s SAS connectivity and 1GB NV Cache, the controller is suited to workloads that benefit from responsive storage access and efficient data handling. It is a strong fit for IT teams maintaining Dell server platforms that require a compatible RAID solution for everyday business use, virtualized environments, or general-purpose storage management.
Performance & Scalability
As a hardware RAID controller, the PERC H730 helps offload storage management tasks from the server system, allowing storage operations to be handled more efficiently. Its support for RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60 gives administrators flexibility when planning for speed, fault tolerance, or a combination of both. The 12Gb/s SAS interface provides a modern connection path for supported drives, while the 1GB NV Cache supports storage responsiveness in environments where consistent access matters. For businesses using Dell PowerEdge servers, this controller offers a straightforward way to scale storage configurations without changing the overall platform. It is especially useful where multiple drive types or RAID layouts are needed to match different application requirements.
Storage Flexibility
The Dell PERC H730 supports both SAS and SATA drives, giving system builders and IT administrators flexibility when selecting storage media. This compatibility allows the controller to work across a range of server storage setups, from performance-focused arrays to capacity-oriented configurations. With support for several RAID levels, it can be used to create mirrored, striped, or parity-based arrays depending on the needs of the server environment. That flexibility is valuable in Dell PowerEdge systems where storage requirements may vary between applications, departments, or deployment stages. Whether the goal is to improve data availability, organize drives into a managed array, or maintain a consistent storage architecture, the H730 provides a versatile foundation for server storage control.
Why Choose This Product?
The Dell PERC H730 RAID Controller is a sensible option for users who need a Dell-compatible storage controller with broad RAID support and established server platform compatibility. It is designed for PowerEdge models such as the R630, R730, and R730xd, making it a convenient choice for maintaining or upgrading supported systems. The combination of PCIe 3.0 connectivity, 12Gb/s SAS support, and NV Cache helps deliver a capable storage management solution for business servers. For IT environments that value compatibility, flexibility, and hardware RAID functionality, this controller offers a focused solution for organizing and protecting server storage while fitting into existing Dell infrastructure.
Why Buy a Refurbished Products?
Refurbished enterprise servers offer enterprise-grade performance at a fraction of the new price.
Up to 70% Cost Savings
Refurbished R650xs units deliver identical hardware capability to new, at significantly lower upfront cost — freeing budget for CPUs, RAM, and storage.
Fully Tested & Verified
Every unit undergoes comprehensive hardware diagnostics before dispatch. POST tests, burn-in, memory checks, and power supply verification are standard.
Immediate Availability
Unlike new enterprise servers with lead times of weeks or months, refurbished stock is ready to ship within 24 hours of ordering.
Same Performance
The hardware inside the R650xs performs identically whether purchased new or refurbished. The 3rd Gen Xeon platform, PCIe Gen4, and iDRAC9 are unchanged.
