Dense Storage Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd packs twelve 3.5-inch drive bays into a 2U rack chassis, driven by two Xeon E5-2640 v3 processors at 2.6GHz and 256GB of DDR4 ECC memory. A PERC H730 SAS controller manages RAID across SATA drives, while dual 1100W supplies and iDRAC8 Enterprise keep the platform running and remotely manageable.

Cold-Data Archives & Backup Targets

This configuration suits teams that need maximum 3.5-inch capacity for sequential workloads such as backup repositories, video surveillance archives or bulk file stores. Buyers who require more than twelve bays, 2.5-inch density or all-flash performance should evaluate a different platform.

Twelve 3.5-Inch Bays Decide Fit

The defining constraint is the twelve-bay 3.5-inch chassis; if the deployment calls for a higher bay count, smaller form-factor drives or a different controller feature set, this server will not meet the requirement.
