Dense 2U Storage Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730XD is a 2U rack server built around two Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 eight-core processors running at 2.4 GHz. It ships with 32 GB of DDR4 memory across 24 DIMM slots and three 1.2 TB 7.2K SAS drives managed by a PERC H730 RAID controller with 1 GB cache. Dual 750 W hot-swap power supplies and iDRAC8 remote management come standard.

Fits High-Density SAS Workloads

This configuration suits buyers who need up to 24 hot-plug 2.5-inch SAS or SATA bays in a compact 2U form factor with hardware RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 or 60. It is not for buyers who need more than two processor sockets, more than 32 GB of installed memory, or drive interfaces other than SAS and SATA.

24-Bay 2.5-Inch Chassis Decides Fit

The defining specification is the 24-bay 2.5-inch hot-plug chassis that caps internal storage at 52 TB using SAS or SATA drives. If your rack space, drive-count requirement, or storage protocol matches that limit, the server is the right part; if you need larger bays or a different bay count, it is not.

Questions about this item

How many 2.5-inch drive bays does the R730XD chassis provide?

The chassis supports up to 24 hot-plug 2.5-inch SAS or SATA bays, and three 1.2TB SAS drives with trays are already installed.

What is the correct order for seating the two Xeon E5-2630v3 processors and populating the 24 DDR4 DIMM slots?

Install CPU1 first, then fill its 12 associated slots before adding CPU2 and using the remaining 12 slots; each processor controls its own memory channels.

When do the 7.2K 6Gbps SAS drives and the H730 controller battery typically need replacement?

The 1.2TB drives are rated for continuous operation, while the H730 RAID controller battery module should be checked every 24 months and replaced if the health status reports degradation.
