24-bay 2U rack server for dense workloads

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd fits 24 front-accessible 2.5-inch drives into a 2U chassis. Two Xeon E5-2620 v3 processors at 2.4 GHz with 6 cores each and 256 GB of DDR4 ECC memory provide compute for virtualisation, databases or HPC data nodes.

Compatibility checks before ordering

Verify your rack accepts 2U depth and that the LGA 2011-3 socket matches any planned processor changes. The PERC H730 controller uses SAS and SATA; confirm drive carriers suit 2.5-inch form factor. Network uplink needs SFP+ modules for the dual 10 GbE ports.

Build quality and daily implications

Redundant hot-swap 750 W platinum supplies keep the system running during a unit failure. Front bezel and ready rails simplify rack mounting and service access. iDRAC 8 Enterprise gives remote console and power control without a local KVM. Quad-port daughter card delivers two 1 GbE and two 10 GbE links from a single slot.
