Dell PowerEdge R730XD 2U dual-Xeon server

This 2U rack server ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 eight-core processors at 2.4 GHz and 32 GB of DDR4 memory. A PERC H730 RAID controller with 1 GB cache manages the three included 1 TB 7.2 K SATA drives across 24 hot-plug 2.5-inch bays. Dual 750 W redundant power supplies and a DVD-ROM complete the configuration.

Suits virtualization hosts

The 24 drive bays and H730 controller support RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 for large local arrays. Buyers who need more than 32 GB of installed memory or more than two processor sockets should look elsewhere. The system also lacks 10 GbE networking unless an optional NDC is added.

24 hot-plug 2.5-inch SAS/SATA bays with H730 RAID

This bay count and controller combination determines how much internal storage you can attach and which RAID levels are available. Verify that the 2.5-inch form factor and SATA/SAS interface match your drive requirements before purchasing.

Questions about this item

What limits sustained performance first on the dual E5-2630 v3 CPUs?

The installed 32 GB DDR4 reaches the processor maximum, so memory capacity caps sustained workloads before the eight-core 2.4 GHz CPUs do.

How loud and hot does the 2U chassis get under all-day load?

Dual 750 W redundant supplies and 24 hot-plug drive bays mean fan speeds rise with drive count and CPU load; expect noticeable airflow noise and front-to-rear heat exhaust in a closed rack.

Which rack rails and network uplinks are required to install and run the server?

You need 2U sliding rails for a four-post rack and at least one 1 GbE switch port for the onboard quad-port daughter card; 10 GbE NDC is optional.
