Rack server with dense 2.5" storage

The Dell PowerEdge R730XD is a 2U rack system built around dual Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 eight-core processors running at 2.4 GHz. It ships with 64 GB of DDR4 memory and three 900 GB 10K SAS drives managed by an H330 RAID controller. The chassis supports up to 24 hot-plug 2.5" bays for SAS or SATA media.

Suits storage-heavy workloads in a 2U slot

This server fits environments that need high drive density and redundant 750 W power in a compact rack footprint. Buyers who require more than 24 drive bays, PCIe 4.0 connectivity, or memory capacity beyond the 64 GB installed should evaluate alternative platforms.

24 DIMM slots cap at 64 GB installed

The system provides 24 DDR4 slots with a maximum supported capacity of 1536 GB, yet only 64 GB is populated from the factory. That gap between the installed 64 GB and the 1536 GB ceiling is the specification that determines whether immediate expansion is necessary.

Questions about this item

What rack space and power connections must I already have for this 2U server with dual 750 W supplies?

Reserve 2U of rack height and provide two separate PDU circuits for the redundant 750 W hot-swap power supplies.

Can I keep using my existing 6 Gbps SAS drives with the H330 controller in this chassis?

Yes, the 24-bay 2.5" backplane accepts 6 Gbps SAS and SATA drives alongside the installed 900 GB 10K SAS disks.

How do I confirm the iDRAC8 remote management is reachable after first power-on?

Attach a monitor to the front video port, note the IPv4 address shown on the iDRAC boot screen, then browse to that address from a management workstation.
