Purpose-built density server

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server loaded with twenty-four 2.5-inch drive bays, dual 22-core Xeon processors at 2.2 GHz and 768 GB of DDR4 ECC memory. A PERC H730 controller manages the installed 1.2 TB SAS disks across multiple RAID levels, while an Intel X520/I350 daughter card adds two 10 Gb SFP+ and two 1 GbE ports. iDRAC 8 Enterprise and dual 750 W platinum supplies complete the package for dense storage workloads.

Ideal for capacity-heavy nodes

This configuration suits teams running data warehouses, VDI storage layers, database nodes or HPC data tiers that need high spindle count and large memory in a 2U footprint. Buyers who need solid-state speed or more than twenty-four drive bays should evaluate other platforms.

Storage controller and bay count

The PERC H730 with 1 GB cache drives twenty-four SAS bays and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through, making the controller-and-bay combination the single spec that decides fit for a given storage topology.

Questions about this item

What 2U rack space and rail kit does the R730xd require for mounting?

The server occupies 2U of rack height and ships with Ready Rails for tool-less installation in standard four-post racks.

How are the 24 front 2.5" drive bays populated and which controller manages them?

All 24 bays come filled with 1.2TB 10K SAS drives connected to the PERC H730 1GB controller; the backplane cables must be seated before power-on.

When will the DDR4 registered ECC memory need replacement or expansion?

The system holds 768GB across 24 slots using 32GB modules; maximum capacity is 1.5TB, so additional DDR4 RDIMMs can be added later.
