Dell PowerEdge R730xd 2U rack server

This Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server system designed for data-intensive workloads. It ships with dual Intel Xeon E5-2620 v3 processors, 512 GB of DDR4 memory and twelve 8 TB 3.5-inch SATA hard drives. The PERC H730 controller manages the storage array.

Suits buyers needing high capacity in a 2U form

This configuration fits environments that require dense local storage and dual-socket compute within a standard 2U chassis. It is not suited for buyers who need flash-based storage, additional processor sockets beyond the installed two, or a smaller rack footprint than 2U.

12 x 8 TB 3.5-inch SATA drives with PERC H730

The server includes twelve 8 TB 7.2K SATA 6 Gb/s hard drives connected to a Dell PERC H730 1 GB controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. This drive count and controller combination determines the available raw capacity and redundancy options.

Questions about this item

What RAID levels does the PERC H730 controller support?

The PERC H730 supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 as well as pass-through mode for direct drive access.

What rack space and rails are required to mount this 2U server?

The chassis occupies 2U of rack height and ships with ready rails for square-hole or round-hole racks.

How are the twelve 3.5-inch drives installed in the front bays?

Drives slide into the hot-swap carriers until the latch clicks; the common mistake is not pushing far enough to engage the backplane connector.
