Dell PowerEdge R730xd 2U server

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server built for midsize and large enterprises running data warehouses, e-commerce, virtual desktop infrastructure, databases and high-performance computing workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2680 v4 processors at 2.4 GHz with 14 cores each and 768 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 24 slots.

Suited for dense SAS storage and virtualisation

This system suits organisations that need 24 front-accessible 2.5-inch drive bays served by a PERC H730 RAID controller with 1 GB cache and battery backup, plus quad-port 1 GbE and 10 Gb SFP+ networking. Buyers who need more than two processors, more than 1.5 TB of memory or storage interfaces beyond SAS and SATA should look elsewhere.

24-bay 2.5-inch SAS chassis with H730 controller

The defining specification is the 24-bay 2.5-inch chassis paired with the Dell PERC H730 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60, which determines both storage density and data-protection options for the platform.

Questions about this item

Does the 2U chassis and included rails fit a standard rack?

The server is a 2U rack-mount unit and ships with ready rails for installation in a standard rack.

What is the correct order for installing the two Xeon E5-2680 v4 processors and 24 DDR4 DIMMs?

Populate CPU1 first, then CPU2, and fill memory slots evenly across both processors following the 24-slot DDR4 layout.

When should the PERC H730 controller battery and the 750W power supplies be replaced?

Replace the controller battery when iDRAC8 reports a degraded state, and swap a power supply if its LED shows amber or the unit logs a PSU fault.
