DELL PowerEdge R730xd 24SFF 2x Xeon E5-2667 v4 256GB DDR4

SKU CH-FNZ5-K96JF

A 24-bay 2.5-inch rack server with dual Xeon 3.2GHz processors and 256GB DDR4 memory, ready for storage-heavy workloads

  • ProcessorIntel Xeon
  • Installed RAM256 GB
  • Type of memoryDDR4
  • Processor speed3.2 GHz
  • Installed CPUs2
  • Max supported CPUs2
  • 24 SFF bays fit dense storage arrays
  • Dual Xeon E5-2667 v4 at 3.2GHz handle heavy workloads
  • 256GB DDR4 ECC memory supports large datasets
  • PERC H730 controller manages SAS drives reliably
  • iDRAC8 Enterprise enables remote server management

Dense 24-bay compute platform

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd packs 24 small-form-factor bays into a 2U rack frame, giving storage-heavy workloads room to scale without a separate array. Two Xeon E5-2667 v4 processors at 3.2 GHz and 256 GB of DDR4 ECC memory supply the throughput needed for virtualization clusters or database nodes.

PERC H730 RAID and 10 GbE networking

The installed PERC H730 SAS controller manages up to 24 drives with hardware RAID levels that protect data during rebuilds. Dual 10 GbE and dual 1 GbE ports from the Intel I350/X540 adapter move replication traffic off the production network, while iDRAC8 Enterprise provides remote console and lifecycle automation without a dedicated KVM.

256 GB memory with 768 GB ceiling

The current 256 GB of registered DDR4 handles moderate VM densities and in-memory databases comfortably, and the board supports up to 768 GB when workloads grow. Builders who need more than 24 drive bays or GPU-accelerated compute will need a different chassis, and the unit ships without drives so storage capacity must be specified separately.

Questions about this item

What maintenance will the PERC H730 RAID controller need over time?

The PERC H730 controller uses a battery-backed cache module that should be replaced every few years to keep write-back caching reliable; firmware updates are also applied during routine server maintenance.

Which limit appears first when the two Xeon E5-2667 v4 CPUs run at 3.2 GHz continuously?

The 1100 W redundant power supplies and the chassis cooling capacity set the thermal and power ceiling before the CPUs reach their maximum turbo frequencies under sustained all-core load.

How much noise and heat do the dual 1100 W supplies produce during 24/7 operation?

The 24-bay 2.5-inch chassis with dual 1100 W power supplies generates significant airflow noise and exhaust heat; plan for a rack environment with adequate cooling and sound isolation for continuous duty.
