2U Rack Server with 12 Drive Bays

The Dell PowerEdge R730XD is a 2U rack server equipped with dual Intel Xeon E5-2630v3 eight-core processors running at 2.4 GHz. It includes 16GB of DDR4 memory across 24 DIMM slots and three 1TB 7.2K SATA drives. The H330 RAID controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60. Dual 750W redundant power supplies and a DVD ROM drive are fitted. No operating system is included.

Suits High-Density Storage Workloads

This server fits environments that need up to 12 hot-plug 3.5-inch SAS or SATA drives in a compact 2U form factor. The 52TB maximum capacity and six PCIe 3.0 slots support storage-heavy applications and additional I/O cards. iDRAC8 with Lifecycle Controller provides remote management. Buyers who need more than two processor sockets, larger installed memory out of the box, or 10GbE networking as standard should look elsewhere.

12-Bay 3.5-Inch Hot-Plug Chassis

The defining specification is the 12-bay 3.5-inch hot-plug chassis that accepts SAS or SATA drives. This physical layout determines whether the server fits the required storage density and drive-type compatibility for the intended deployment.

Questions about this item

What rack and power setup do I need for this 2U server?

The chassis occupies 2U of rack space and ships with dual 750W redundant hot-swap power supplies that require matching PDU outlets.

Can I keep using my existing 3.5" SAS drives in the remaining bays?

Yes, the server supports up to 12 hot-plug 3.5" bays that accept both SAS and SATA drives, so current SAS media will work alongside the installed SATA drives.

How do I verify the H330 controller sees all three 1TB drives after installation?

Open the controller BIOS during boot or log into iDRAC8; the virtual-disk view will list each 1TB SATA drive and the configured RAID level.
