DELL PowerEdge R730xd 2U server

The DELL PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server built for midsize and large enterprise workloads. It ships with dual Intel Xeon E5-2620 v3 processors, 768 GB of DDR4 ECC memory and a PERC H730 storage controller. Dual 750 W power supplies and iDRAC8 Enterprise provide redundancy and remote management.

Suited for virtualisation.

This configuration fits environments that need dense 2.5-inch SAS storage and integrated 10 GbE SFP+ networking. Buyers who need more drive bays, different drive interfaces or additional network ports should consider other platforms. The installed memory uses DDR4 registered ECC modules only.

PERC H730 RAID controller with 1 GB cache

The onboard PERC H730 supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. It manages the two included 300 GB 10 K SAS drives and any additional SAS or SATA devices. This controller choice determines the storage topology and data-protection options available.
