PowerEdge R730XD 12-bay server

The Dell PowerEdge R730XD is a 2U rack server built for storage-dense workloads. It ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2650v3 ten-core processor running at 2.3GHz and 128GB of DDR4 memory installed across 24 DIMM slots. The system supports a second processor for doubled compute capacity.

Hot-plug drive bays and redundant power

Twelve 3.5-inch hot-plug bays accept SAS or SATA drives without tools or downtime. Two 750W redundant power supplies keep the system running if one unit fails. A DVD-ROM drive and iDRAC8 remote management are included for local media and out-of-band administration.

H730 RAID controller with 1GB cache

The Perc H730 controller provides 12Gbps throughput and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. It occupies a dedicated slot leaving up to six PCIe 3.0 slots free for additional networking or acceleration cards. Maximum raw capacity reaches 52TB with 12 drives installed.

Questions about this item

What RAID levels does the H730 12Gbps controller support?

The H730 controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60 for flexible storage configurations.

What are the rack dimensions and weight for mounting?

The 2U chassis measures 26.8 by 17.44 by 3.4 inches and weighs 60 lbs; a rail kit is included.

How do you install the processors and what is the common mistake?

Install up to two CPUs in the two sockets; the system ships with one E5-2650v3, so adding a second requires matching the same model.
