PowerEdge R730xd 2U 24-bay server

This 2U rack system ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2660 v4 processors running at 2.0 GHz with 14 cores each. It includes 64 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across four 16 GB modules and a PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC8 Enterprise remote management come standard.

Ideal for dense storage workloads

The 24-bay 2.5-inch chassis suits teams running databases, virtual desktop infrastructure or data-warehouse nodes that need high drive count in a 2U footprint. Buyers who need more than two processor sockets, GPU compute sleds or an all-flash array should evaluate other platforms.

PERC H730 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA controller

The installed H730 mini card provides 12 Gb/s SAS and SATA connectivity with battery-backed cache and supports up to 24 drives in the front bays. This single component determines the RAID levels, drive protocols and maximum drive count available without adding a second controller.

Questions about this item

Will the LGA 2011-3 sockets work with the existing E5-2660 v4 processors installed in this unit?

Yes, the server ships with two E5-2660 v4 CPUs already seated in the LGA 2011-3 sockets, so the sockets are confirmed to support those exact processors.

How can I confirm the PERC H730 controller and iDRAC8 Enterprise are operating correctly after installation?

During POST the H730 BIOS reports its firmware version and battery status, and iDRAC8 Enterprise presents its web interface at the assigned IP address for remote health monitoring.

Which items are included in the shipment and which components must be sourced separately?

The box contains the 2U chassis with bezel, sliding rails, two 750 W power supplies, two E5-2660 v4 CPUs, four 16 GB DDR4 modules, the H730 controller, two 300 GB SAS drives and the X520/I350 network card; additional drives or memory must be purchased separately.
