Enterprise storage server

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server built for data-intensive workloads such as databases, virtual desktop infrastructure and high-performance computing. Dual Intel Xeon E5-2699 v4 processors deliver 22 cores each at 2.2 GHz with 3.6 GHz turbo, while 768 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 24 slots provides large capacity for virtualisation and in-memory analytics.

Suited for capacity-focused deployments

This system suits organisations that need twelve 3.5-inch drive bays populated with 6 TB enterprise SATA hard drives and hardware RAID via the PERC H730 controller. Buyers who require all-flash performance or a smaller 1U footprint should look at alternative platforms.

Twelve 6 TB drives on a PERC H730 controller

The storage subsystem centres on twelve 7.2K RPM SATA drives managed by a Dell PERC H730 1 GB controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. This combination determines whether the raw capacity and redundancy levels match the target workload.

Questions about this item

Will the 2.2 GHz 22-core Xeon processors work with my existing LGA 2011-3 motherboards?

The server uses two LGA 2011-3 sockets, the same socket as your current boards, so the installed Xeon E5-2699 v4 CPUs are physically compatible with that platform.

How can I confirm the PERC H730 controller sees all 12 drives after installation?

Open the controller BIOS or iDRAC 8 Enterprise storage view; it will list each 6 TB SATA drive and the configured RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 volumes.

Which items ship inside the chassis and which must I order separately?

The chassis includes two 750 W PSUs, front bezel, Ready Rails, the X520/I350 quad-port card and 24 DDR4 DIMMs; SFP+ transceivers and network cables are not included.
