PowerEdge R730XD 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R730XD is a 2U rack server built for dense storage workloads. It ships with dual Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 eight-core processors running at 2.4 GHz and 32 GB of DDR4 memory. The system targets environments that need high drive counts in a compact chassis.

12-bay hot-plug storage with H330 RAID

The chassis accepts up to 12 x 3.5-inch hot-plug SAS or SATA drives; three 1 TB 7.2K SATA drives are installed. The Dell PERC H330 12 Gbps controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60, with a maximum raw capacity of 52 TB. Memory tops out at 32 GB across 24 DIMM slots, so large in-memory datasets will require a different platform.

Redundant power and remote management

Dual 750 W hot-swap power supplies provide redundancy for continuous operation. A DVD-ROM drive is included for media tasks. Networking uses a daughter card with four 1 GbE ports, while optional 10 GbE NDCs can be added. Six PCIe 3.0 slots plus a dedicated RAID slot allow expansion cards, and iDRAC8 with Lifecycle Controller handles remote administration.

Questions about this item

Will the twelve 3.5-inch bays accept the SATA drives I already own?

Yes, the chassis supports up to twelve 3.5-inch hot-plug SATA or SAS drives, so existing SATA drives fit directly into the supplied trays.

How can I confirm the H330 controller is managing the three 1 TB drives correctly after installation?

During boot, open the H330 BIOS utility (Ctrl+R) to verify the RAID volume status shows optimal and all three drives appear as members.

Which items ship inside the box and which must be ordered separately?

The server includes two E5-2630 v3 processors, 32 GB DDR4, three 1 TB 7.2K SATA drives with trays, H330 RAID controller, two 750 W redundant power supplies, DVD-ROM, iDRAC8 Express and rails; operating system and additional memory or drives are not included.
