PowerEdge R730xd 24SFF server

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server built for dense storage workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2697 v4 processors running at 2.3GHz and 768GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. The 24-bay 2.5-inch chassis supports SATA and SAS drives through a PERC H730 RAID controller. Remote management is handled by iDRAC8 with an Enterprise licence.

Suits virtualisation and database clusters.

This configuration targets environments that need high core counts and large memory capacity, such as virtualisation hosts, in-memory databases or storage-heavy applications. The integrated graphics and lack of installed drives mean it is not suited for GPU-accelerated workloads or deployments that require local boot storage out of the box. Buyers needing PCIe add-in cards should verify slot availability against their card dimensions.

768GB DDR4 at maximum capacity

The system arrives with all 24 DIMM slots populated to reach the platform maximum of 768GB. No further memory expansion is possible without replacing existing modules. This fixed capacity makes the server a precise fit for workloads sized to this limit, while buyers anticipating growth must plan for a different platform.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the dual Xeon E5-2697 v4 processors are recognised after powering on the R730xd?

During POST the BIOS will display two CPUs, each showing 18 cores at 2.3GHz, and iDRAC8 Enterprise will report both sockets as healthy.

Which components ship with the 24SFF chassis and which must be ordered separately?

The unit includes 2x 1100W power supplies, PERC H730 RAID controller, Intel I350/X540 2x10GbE+2x1GbE NIC, 768GB DDR4 ECC RAM and rail kit on request; 2.5" drives are not installed.

Is the installed 768GB DDR4 the maximum this R730xd can accept?

Yes, 768GB matches the documented maximum memory capacity for this configuration.
