DELL PowerEdge R730xd 2U Rack Server 2x Xeon E5-2683 v4 2.1GHz 16-Core 128GB DDR4 24x 300GB SAS H730

Dense 2U rack server for data-intensive workloads

The PowerEdge R730xd fits 24 front-accessible 2.5-inch bays into 2U of rack space. Two Xeon E5-2683 v4 processors deliver 16 cores each at 2.1 GHz with 3.0 GHz turbo. 128 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across eight 16 GB modules supports virtualisation, database and high-performance computing tasks. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC8 Enterprise provide redundancy and remote management.

Sustained throughput from 24 enterprise SAS drives

Twenty-four 300 GB 10K SAS disks connect through a PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache and battery backup. The controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through for software-defined storage. Quad-port networking with two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ links feeds data to the array without bottlenecking the CPU complex during extended writes or rebuilds.

Tool-less rails and hot-swap bays simplify daily

Ready Rails allow the chassis to slide into a standard rack without tools, and the front bezel snaps on for a clean finish. All 24 drive carriers, both power supplies and the fan modules are hot-swappable, so failed components can be replaced while the server stays online. iDRAC8 Enterprise gives full KVM-over-IP and lifecycle control from any browser.
