Dell r730 variants? in c/homelab@selfhosted.forum
[โ€“] camber-weaver@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Thank you for all of this info. I'm planning to slowly roll out three of these servers with Proxmox as a cluster. I'm just upgrading all of the available power outlets and spec'ing UPSes now.

Via another reddit thread on the topic, I found this YouTube playlist which has been super helpful. Just re-posting it here for posterity:

Thanks, y'all.

I don't think I need so many drives so now its just a matter of verifying that if I scoop one or two low-RAM-specs off of eBay for cheap I will be able to re-populate them with RAM.

Dell r730 variants? (alien.top)
 

I'm just pushing into rackmount hardware and I've been considering picking up an r730. From what I'm reading it seems *possible* that there are a couple of variants. Maybe related to available drive bays? Any chance someone could point me to some docs or some resource on variants?

Note: I don't consider differing CPU and RAM spec within a model as variants.

thx!
