HDD 24 x 600GB 10K SAS

  • Dual 22-core Xeon processors at 2.2 GHz deliver 44 cores for heavy workloads
  • 256 GB DDR4 registered ECC memory across 8 slots supports large virtualisation deployments
  • 24-bay 2.5-inch chassis filled with 600 GB 10 K SAS drives provides high-capacity local storage
  • PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache enables RAID 0 1 5 6 10 50 60 for data protection
  • iDRAC 8 Enterprise plus quad-port 1 GbE and 10 Gb SFP+ networking simplifies remote management

Dual 22-core Xeon server for dense storage workloads

The PowerEdge R730xd fits 24 drive bays into a 2U rack chassis, making it suited for data warehouses, VDI and HPC data nodes that need local capacity alongside compute. Two Xeon E5-2699 v4 processors deliver 44 total cores at 2.2 GHz with 3.6 GHz turbo for heavily threaded applications.

24-bay 2.5-inch SAS chassis with H730 RAID

The single specification that decides fit is the 24-bay 2.5-inch SAS backplane paired with the PERC H730 1 GB controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through. This combination determines whether the server can absorb your existing 600 GB 10 K SAS drives and desired redundancy level.

Quad-port 1/10 GbE networking plus iDRAC8 Enterprise

The Intel X520/I350 daughter card adds two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports for flexible top-of-rack connectivity. iDRAC8 Enterprise provides full remote management with virtual console and dedicated network access. Dual 750 W platinum supplies, rails and bezel complete the bundle.

Questions about this item

What does the 2.2 GHz base clock with 3.6 GHz turbo mean for real-world throughput on the dual 22-core Xeon E5-2699 v4 CPUs?

The pair delivers 44 cores at 2.2 GHz with single-core boost to 3.6 GHz, giving strong multi-thread capacity for databases, virtualization or HPC node workloads.

What RAID levels and throughput ceiling does the PERC H730 1 GB controller impose on the 24-bay SAS backplane?

The H730 supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 over a 12 Gb/s SAS link, so the backplane bandwidth and drive count set the practical limit.

How deep is the 2U chassis and will the included ready rails mount in a standard four-post rack?

The server is a 2U rack form factor with ready rails supplied; depth and rail compatibility follow Dell's standard R730xd mechanical spec.
