PowerEdge R730xd 2U Server

This Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server built for midsize and large enterprise workloads such as data warehouses, e-commerce, virtual desktop infrastructure, databases and high-performance computing data nodes. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2620 v3 6-core processors running at 2.40 GHz with 3.2 GHz turbo, 768 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory across 24 slots, and a Dell PERC H730 1 GB RAID controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60.

Dense 2.5-inch SAS storage

The chassis holds 24 front-accessible 2.5-inch drive bays populated with 1.2 TB 10K SAS hard drives delivering 12 Gb/s throughput, making it suited for applications that need high capacity and redundancy in a compact rack footprint. Buyers who need solid-state media or a different drive interface should look at other configurations because this unit ships with mechanical SAS drives only.

Dual Xeon E5-2620 v3 compute

The installed dual-socket LGA 2011-3 platform provides 12 total cores at 2.40 GHz base frequency with 3.2 GHz turbo, and the board supports a maximum of 1.5 TB DDR4 across 24 DIMM slots. If your workload demands more cores per socket, higher base clocks or a newer processor generation, this server will not meet those requirements.

Questions about this item

What storage interface does the PERC H730 controller use, and what throughput does it cap at?

The PERC H730 controller uses a 12Gb/s SAS interface, which caps drive throughput at that rate for the installed 1.2TB SAS drives.

What rack space and mounting hardware does this 2U server require?

The server occupies 2U of rack height and ships with ReadyRails sliding rails for installation in a standard 4-post rack.

How are the 768GB of DDR4 memory installed across the 24 slots, and what mistake should be avoided?

Memory is populated as 24x 32GB DDR4 2133MHz Registered ECC modules filling every slot; the common error is mixing registered and unregistered DIMMs, which prevents the system from posting.
