2U Rack Server for Dense Storage

The Dell PowerEdge R730XD fits 24 hot-plug 2.5-inch drive bays into a 2U chassis, making it suitable for organisations that need high local capacity in limited rack space. Dual Xeon E5-2630 v3 processors provide 16 physical cores and 32 threads at 2.4 GHz, while 64 GB of DDR4 memory occupies half the 24 available DIMM slots.

H730 RAID Controller with 1 GB Cache

The Perc H730 card adds 1 GB of 12 Gbps cache and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60, letting administrators tune redundancy and performance for the three included 300 GB 15K SAS drives or any future SAS and SATA additions. Dual 750 W redundant power supplies and a DVD-ROM complete the bundled hardware.

Maximum Installed Memory is 64 GB

Although the platform can address up to 1536 GB, this unit ships with 64 GB already installed and the specification lists 64 GB as the maximum installed capacity, so buyers who need more memory must verify upgrade paths before purchase.

Questions about this item

How many DDR4 DIMM slots are free for adding memory later?

All 24 slots are populated to reach 64 GB, so any upgrade means removing existing modules first.

Which component hits its ceiling first during a sustained heavy workload?

The two E5-2630 v3 processors max out at 2.4 GHz with 16 cores total, limiting compute throughput before memory or storage saturate.

How loud and hot does the 2U chassis get with both 750 W supplies running continuously?

Dual redundant 750 W supplies and 24 drive bays mean multiple high-speed fans; expect noticeable fan noise and significant heat output in a closed rack.
