Dense 2U storage server

The Dell PowerEdge R730XD is a 2U rackmount system built around dual Xeon E5-2650 v3 processors, each with 10 cores at 2.3 GHz. It ships with 128 GB of DDR4 memory across 24 DIMM slots and a PERC H330 RAID controller supporting RAID 0/1/5/10/50/60. Twenty-four hot-plug 2.5-inch drive bays provide up to 52 TB of raw capacity. Redundant 750 W power supplies and iDRAC8 remote management complete the package.

Suits storage-heavy workloads

This server fits environments that need many drive bays in a compact chassis, such as backup targets, software-defined storage nodes or archive repositories. The dual 10-core CPUs and 128 GB RAM handle moderate virtualization or database duties. Buyers who require more than 128 GB of memory, more than six PCIe 3.0 slots, or 10 GbE networking as standard should evaluate other platforms. The Matrox G200 graphics and single DVD drive limit desktop or GPU-accelerated uses.

24-bay 2.5-inch chassis

The defining specification is the 24-bay 2.5-inch hot-plug backplane, which determines how much local storage the system can hold and which drive form factors are compatible.

No drives or trays are included; the 24 x 2.5" hot-plug bays accept SAS or SATA drives you supply. A power cable is included; rail kit and bezel are not.

Which memory capacity should I choose if I want the maximum supported by this configuration?

The installed 128 GB across 24 DIMM slots is the maximum this dual-processor setup supports; each processor addresses 12 slots at up to 2400 MT/s DDR4.

What RAID levels can the H330 controller handle with the 24 drive bays?

The H330 12 Gbps controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60 across all 24 hot-plug SAS or SATA bays.
