Dense 2U server for storage-heavy workloads

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd packs 24 drive bays and two Xeon E5-2620 v3 processors into a 2U rack frame. It targets organisations that need high local capacity for databases, virtual desktop infrastructure or data-warehouse nodes. Twenty-four 400 GB SATA SSDs and 256 GB of DDR4 ECC memory ship pre-installed.

Sustained throughput from RAID and dual CPUs

The PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache manages the SSD array across RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 levels, keeping write latency predictable during long-running jobs. Two 6-core Xeon CPUs at 2.4 GHz with 3.2 GHz turbo maintain steady compute output without thermal throttling in the 2U chassis.

Hot-swap redundancy and remote control

Dual 750 W platinum power supplies and hot-swap drive carriers allow component replacement without downtime. The X520/I350 daughter card adds two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports for flexible networking. iDRAC 8 Enterprise gives full out-of-band management over a dedicated connection.
