DELL PowerEdge R730xd 24 Bay 2.5" 2U rack server 2x Xeon E5-2660 v4 2.0GHz 14 Core 64GB DDR4

24-bay 2U rack server with dual 14-core Xeons

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack-mount server system designed for dense storage workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2660 v4 processors, each running at 2.0 GHz with 14 cores and a 3.2 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 64 GB of DDR4-2400 registered ECC memory across four 16 GB modules. A PERC H730 1 GB controller manages the 24 front-accessible 2.5-inch SAS/SATA drive trays.

Suits storage-heavy virtualisation

This configuration targets midsize and large enterprises running data warehouses, e-commerce platforms, virtual desktop infrastructure or high-performance computing data nodes. The quad-port network daughter card provides two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ connections for flexible fabric integration. iDRAC 8 Enterprise enables comprehensive remote management. Buyers who require more than two processor sockets or a different drive bay count should evaluate other platforms.

24 front 2.5-inch SAS/SATA trays define capacity

The single specification that decides fit is the 24-bay 2.5-inch chassis coupled with the H730 RAID controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Maximum memory capacity reaches 1.5 TB across 24 DIMM slots when fully populated. Dual 750 W platinum hot-swap power supplies deliver redundant power. Ready rails and a front bezel are included for immediate rack deployment.
