Dense 2U storage node

The PowerEdge R730xd fits twenty-four 2.5-inch drives into a 2U rack chassis, giving midsize and large enterprises a compact platform for data warehouses, VDI, databases and HPC data-node workloads. Dual Xeon E5-2620 v3 six-core processors at 2.4 GHz and 64 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory provide the compute base for those roles.

Suited to capacity-heavy, dual-socket tasks

Buyers who need a high drive count in minimal rack space with hardware RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 will match this configuration. Buyers who want more storage than twenty-four bays allow, or who require single-thread performance above 3.2 GHz, should look at something else.

Twenty-four 800 GB SATA SSDs on a PERC H730

The installed drives and controller deliver the raw capacity and RAID flexibility that decide whether this server meets the workload. Additional memory slots and PCIe bays remain open for future expansion.

Questions about this item

How often will the 24 800GB SATA SSDs need replacement under heavy write workloads?

Enterprise SATA SSDs are rated for high endurance; actual lifespan depends on daily write volume and RAID configuration on the H730 controller.

What thermal or power limit appears first when both Xeon E5-2620 v3 CPUs run at 3.2 GHz turbo continuously?

The 750 W platinum power supplies and 2U chassis cooling set the ceiling; sustained turbo across all 12 cores will hit the power budget before thermal throttling.

How loud are the fans and how much heat does the server emit when fully populated and running 24/7?

Dual 750 W platinum PSUs and redundant hot-swap cooling keep noise at typical rack-server levels; exhaust heat matches total system draw under load.
