High-density 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R730XD is a 2U rack server designed for storage-heavy workloads. It fits 24 hot-plug 2.5-inch drive bays, a single Intel Xeon E5-2609 v3 six-core processor at 1.9 GHz and 8 GB of DDR4 memory. A Perc H730 RAID controller with 1 GB cache supports RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 and dual 750 W redundant power supplies keep the system running.

Suited for capacity-first deployments

This configuration suits teams that need maximum drive density in a 2U chassis and can populate memory up to 24 DIMM slots over time. Buyers who need a second CPU installed, factory-fitted drives or drives larger than the 2.5-inch form factor should evaluate other platforms. The included Matrox G200 video and four 1 GbE ports cover basic management and console access.

24-bay 2.5-inch hot-plug chassis

The defining specification is the 24-bay 2.5-inch hot-plug backplane that accepts SAS or SATA drives and scales to 52 TB of raw capacity. Combined with the H730 controller and 24 DDR4 slots, it determines whether the server matches a storage-first or compute-first deployment plan.

Questions about this item

What is the maximum DDR4 memory capacity the R730XD can support?

The system supports up to 1536GB of DDR4 memory across 24 DIMM slots, running at speeds up to 2400MT/s depending on the installed processor capability.

How much power do the redundant supplies deliver under continuous load?

Two 750W hot-swap power supplies provide redundant power, allowing the server to maintain operation if one unit fails during all-day workloads.

Which drive trays or caddies are required to populate the 24 front bays?

The 2.5-inch hot-plug bays accept SAS or SATA drives, but no trays are included with the server so they must be sourced separately.
