Dense 2U storage server

The PowerEdge R730xd fits 24 front-accessible 2.5-inch drive bays into a 2U rack height, giving midsize and large enterprises a high-density platform for data warehouses, VDI, databases and HPC data nodes. Dual Xeon E5-2620 v3 processors and 64GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory provide the compute foundation for these workloads.

PERC H730 with 24 SAS drives

A Dell PERC H730 1GB controller manages the 24 installed 1.2TB 10K SAS drives, supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through modes. Quad-port networking combines two 1GbE and two 10Gb SFP+ links on an X520/I350 daughter card, while iDRAC8 Enterprise enables full remote management. Ready Rails and a front bezel ship with the unit for immediate rack integration.

Dual 750W Platinum supplies

Redundant hot-swap 750 Watt Platinum power supplies maintain uptime during a module failure and operate at high efficiency under typical enterprise loads. The 2U chassis directs airflow across the dual processors, memory risers and dense drive cage to keep thermals controlled. Fan speeds adjust to workload demand, limiting acoustic output in normal rack environments.

Questions about this item

What SAS speed does the PERC H730 controller support and how does it affect the 24 installed 1.2TB drives?

The H730 controller runs at 12Gb/s SAS, matching the 12Gb/s rating of the 24 installed 1.2TB 10K drives so each drive can operate at its full interface speed.

What physical space and mounting hardware does this 2U server require?

The chassis occupies 2U of rack height and ships with Ready Rails and a front bezel for mounting in a standard rack enclosure.

How are the two Xeon E5-2620 v3 processors and the 64GB DDR4 memory installed, and what step is often missed?

Both LGA 2011-3 CPUs and the four 16GB DDR4 2133MHz Registered ECC DIMMs come pre-installed; the step often missed is ensuring the memory population follows the quad-channel sequence for each processor.
