Dense 2U storage server

The Dell PowerEdge R730XD fits twelve 3.5-inch hot-plug bays into a 2U rack chassis. A single Xeon E5-2630 v3 at 2.4 GHz with eight cores and 64 GB of DDR4 handles storage workloads. The Perc H730 controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across all bays. Dual 750 W redundant supplies and iDRAC8 remote management complete the platform.

Buyers needing maximum drive density in minimal

This server suits teams that want twelve large drives behind one node without stepping to a 4U box. The installed CPU and memory are fixed at one processor and 64 GB, so workloads that demand dual-socket compute or more than 64 GB of RAM will need a different configuration. No drives or trays are included, so the buyer must supply them.

Twelve 3.5-inch hot-plug bays with H730 RAID

The raw capacity ceiling is 52 TB when every bay is populated with the largest supported drives. The H730 controller manages the array at 12 Gbps SAS/SATA speeds. If the application requires more than twelve drives per node or a different drive form factor, this chassis cannot accommodate it.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the single E5-2630 v3 or add a second processor?

The server supports up to two processors; a second E5-2630 v3 would double cores to 16 physical and 32 threads for heavier virtualization workloads.

What does the 2.4 GHz clock speed deliver in this 2U rack server?

The eight-core Xeon E5-2630 v3 at 2.4 GHz provides 16 threads with hyper-threading, suited for virtualization and database tasks within the 64 GB DDR4 configuration.

How does the H730 12 Gbps RAID controller limit drive performance?

The H730 caps SAS and SATA drives at 12 Gbps per lane and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across the 12 hot-plug 3.5-inch bays.
