Dense 2U storage server

The Dell PowerEdge R730XD packs 24 hot-plug 2.5-inch bays into a 2U rack chassis. Dual Xeon E5-2630 v3 processors deliver 16 cores at 2.4 GHz with 32 threads, while 16 GB of DDR4 memory and a PERC H330 RAID controller handle 0/1/5/10/50/60 arrays. Redundant 750 W supplies and iDRAC8 remote management complete the platform.

Buyers needing massive local disk counts

This configuration targets archives, backup targets and media libraries that benefit from 24 drive bays and up to 52 TB raw capacity. Workloads demanding GPU compute, more than 16 GB of installed RAM or 10 GbE networking out of the box should evaluate other systems.

24-bay 2.5-inch chassis

The defining specification is the 24 hot-plug 2.5-inch drive bays backed by a 12 Gbps H330 controller supporting RAID 0/1/5/10/50/60. This bay count and controller combination determines whether the server fits a storage-dense deployment.
