2U rack server with 24 drive bays

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server built for storage-dense workloads. Dual Xeon E5-2620 v3 processors and 768GB of DDR4 memory support virtualization, databases and high-performance computing. Twenty-four 2.5-inch bays provide extensive local capacity.

Compatibility checks before ordering

Verify that your rack accepts 2U depth and weight before installation. Confirm the LGA 2011-3 socket matches any planned CPU changes and that the Intel C610 chipset supports your operating system. Ensure the H730 controller firmware aligns with your RAID requirements. Check SFP+ transceiver compatibility for the 10Gb network ports.

Build quality and daily implications

Hot-swap redundant 750W power supplies and drive bays allow component replacement without downtime. The PERC H730 controller with battery-backed cache protects data during power loss. iDRAC8 Enterprise enables remote management independent of the operating system. Included rails and bezel simplify rack mounting and physical security.

Questions about this item

What components come pre-installed and what must I source separately?

The server ships with two Xeon E5-2620 v3 2.4GHz 6-core CPUs, 768GB DDR4 in all 24 slots, two 800GB SATA SSDs, PERC H730 controller, X520/I350 quad-port NIC, iDRAC8 Enterprise, dual 750W PSUs, rails and bezel.

Should I choose the 24-bay 2.5" chassis or a different drive count for my workload?

This unit is the 24-bay 2.5" model; the bay count is fixed. Select it when you need high drive density in 2U for databases, VDI or HPC data-node roles.

How does the 768GB DDR4 2133MHz configuration perform once the server is running production VMs?

All 24 DIMM slots are populated with 32GB registered ECC modules at 2133MHz, delivering the full 768GB capacity with error correction for stable virtualisation and database workloads.
