PowerEdge R730xd 12-Bay Storage Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server built for storage-dense workloads. It ships with dual Intel Xeon E5-2699 v4 processors, each running at 2.2 GHz with 22 cores, and 768 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 24 slots. The PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache manages up to twelve 3.5-inch SATA or SAS drives in multiple RAID modes.

Suited for high-capacity database or archive nodes

This configuration targets midsize and large enterprises running data warehouses, virtual desktop infrastructure or high-performance computing data nodes where drive count and memory capacity matter. Buyers who need more than two processors, more than 1.5 TB of RAM, or a form factor smaller than 2U should look at something else.

Dual Xeon E5-2699 v4 22-core CPUs

The installed processors deliver 44 total cores at a 2.2 GHz base frequency with 3.6 GHz turbo headroom on the LGA 2011-3 platform. This core count and clock profile determines whether the server can handle the intended parallel workload or if a different CPU density is required.

Questions about this item

Does this server include the hard drives needed to use the PERC H730 controller?

The system ships with twelve 3.5" trays but no drives installed; you must supply SAS or SATA drives to populate the bays and configure RAID on the H730.

Can I keep my existing 1 GbE network cabling with the X520/I350 daughter card?

The daughter card includes two 1 GbE ports that work with standard copper cabling, while the two 10 GbE ports use SFP+ transceivers for fibre or direct-attach cables.

How can I verify the 768 GB of DDR4 memory is recognised after installation?

Check the iDRAC8 Enterprise inventory page or the BIOS memory map during POST; both will show all twenty-four 32 GB modules running at 2400 MHz.
