2U rack server with 24 SATA SSDs

This Dell PowerEdge R730xd delivers a 2U rackmount platform fitted with twenty-four 800 GB SATA solid-state drives. Dual Xeon E5-2680 v3 processors provide 24 cores at 2.5 GHz, with 3.3 GHz turbo, while 64 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory occupies four of twenty-four slots. The PERC H730 controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode.

Suits virtualisation hosts needing dense local flash

This configuration targets midsize and large enterprise workloads such as data warehouses, e-commerce platforms, virtual desktop infrastructure and high-performance computing data nodes. Buyers who require GPU-accelerated compute or fibre-channel connectivity should evaluate alternative platforms.

PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache

The installed H730 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA RAID card with battery-backed cache determines which drive types and RAID levels are supported. Verify that SATA SSDs and the required RAID modes match your application before purchase.

Questions about this item

Does the Dell PERC H730 1GB controller support SATA and SAS drives in the same array?

The PERC H730 1GB controller handles both SATA and SAS interfaces, so the installed 24x 800GB SATA SSDs can share the backplane with SAS drives if you add them later.

Can the two Xeon E5-2680 v3 processors run at their 3.3GHz turbo frequency when all 24 cores are loaded?

Each Xeon E5-2680 v3 has 12 cores and a 3.3GHz turbo rating; actual sustained clocks depend on workload, cooling and power limits of the 2U chassis.

How can I confirm the iDRAC 8 Enterprise remote management is active after the server posts?

During POST the iDRAC 8 Enterprise IP address appears on screen; ping that address and log in with a browser to verify full remote console and virtual media access.
