24-Bay 2U Server with Dual Xeon E5-2680 v3

This Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server built for dense storage workloads. It ships with twenty-four 300 GB 10K SAS drives, a PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache, and dual 750 W platinum power supplies. The system arrives ready to rack with rails and bezel included.

Suited for high-capacity SAS arrays

The 24 drive bays, dual 12-core processors at 2.5 GHz, and 128 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory make it a fit for databases, VDI and data-node roles. Buyers who need solid-state media, fewer drive bays, or a single-processor configuration should look elsewhere.

PERC H730 RAID controller with 1 GB cache

The on-board H730 supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. It manages all twenty-four SAS or SATA drives through a single 12 Gb/s interface. Verify that your workload can use this controller before ordering.

Questions about this item

What RAID levels does the PERC H730 1GB controller support?

The Dell PERC H730 1GB controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60, plus pass-through mode for non-RAID configurations.

What rack depth clearance is needed for the included Ready Rails on this 2U server?

The included Ready Rails are designed for standard 4-post racks; verify your rack's adjustable depth range matches the rail specifications before mounting.

How are the 24x 300GB SAS drives installed, and what step is commonly missed?

Drives install into the front 2.5-inch hot-swap bays; the step often missed is ensuring each carrier handle clicks fully closed to engage the SAS backplane connection.
