DELL PowerEdge R730xd 12LFF 2x Xeon E5-2699v4 256GB DDR4 No Drive rack server

Dense compute in 12-bay 3.5" chassis

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd packs two Xeon E5-2699 v4 processors, each running at 2.2 GHz with 22 cores and 55 MB cache, into a 2U rack frame that accepts up to twelve 3.5-inch drives. It ships with 256 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC H730 SAS controller, while dual 1100 W supplies and iDRAC8 Enterprise remote management come standard.

Suits storage-heavy workloads needing many large

This configuration fits teams that want maximum 3.5-inch bay density for capacity-oriented arrays backed by high core counts. Buyers who need 2.5-inch bay density, more than two sockets, or a different drive interface should evaluate other platforms.

Twelve 3.5-inch drive bays define the storage

The chassis provides exactly twelve large-form-factor slots, so the usable raw capacity is limited by the number and size of drives you install. No additional 3.5-inch bays can be added to this unit.
