Dual 22-core Xeon server

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server fitted with two Intel Xeon E5-2699 v4 processors, each running at 2.2 GHz with 22 cores. It ships with 512 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory spread across 16 modules. A PERC H730 controller manages 24 installed 800 GB SATA SSDs in the front 2.5-inch bays.

High-density storage and compute

This platform suits workloads that demand many cores and a large all-flash array in a compact chassis, such as databases, virtual desktop infrastructure or data-warehouse nodes. Buyers who need more than two processors or who require a different drive protocol should consider other architectures.

24-bay 2.5-inch SATA/SAS backplane

The defining specification is the 24-bay 2.5-inch backplane wired to a 12 Gb/s PERC H730 controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. That combination fixes the maximum drive count and the storage protocol available without adding external enclosures.
