24-bay 2U rack server

This Dell PowerEdge R730xd fits 24 small-form-factor drives in a 2U chassis. Two Intel Xeon E5-2650v4 processors run at 2.2 GHz with 12 cores each and 30 MB cache. The system ships with 512 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC H730 SAS RAID controller. Dual 1100 W power supplies and iDRAC8 Enterprise remote management are included.

High-density storage and virtualization workloads

The 24-bay front panel suits teams that need many SATA or SAS spindles for capacity-heavy databases, backup targets or software-defined storage clusters. Buyers who need more than 768 GB of memory or more than two processor sockets should look elsewhere. Integrated graphics and the quad-port Intel network card (two 10 GbE plus two 1 GbE) cover basic console and management traffic without extra cards.

512 GB DDR4 ECC registered memory installed

This is the specification that decides fit: the server arrives with 512 GB of DDR4 ECC registered RAM across its DIMM slots, leaving headroom to the 768 GB maximum. If the application demands a different memory capacity or a different DDR generation, the platform will not accept it.

Questions about this item

What SAS controller and interface speed does the PERC H730 provide for the 24 drive bays?

The PERC H730 SAS controller manages all 24 bays at 12 Gb/s SAS, and the backplane also accepts 6 Gb/s SATA drives.

What rack depth and rail clearance does the 24 SFF chassis require?

The chassis is 36 inches deep and needs standard square-hole rails with at least 10 inches of vertical space for the 2U form factor.

How do you install drives in the 24-bay front panel, and what step is often missed?

Slide each 2.5-inch carrier into a bay until the latch clicks, then run the PERC H730 configuration utility to create virtual disks before the OS sees them.
