2U rack server for dense storage

This Dell PowerEdge R730XD occupies 2U of rack space and supports up to twelve 3.5-inch hot-plug SAS or SATA drives. A single Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 eight-core processor running at 2.4GHz and 8GB of DDR4 memory are installed. Dual 750W redundant power supplies and a PERC H330 RAID controller with 12Gbps SAS connectivity provide the foundation for storage-heavy workloads.

Suited for capacity-focused deployments

Organisations that need a high drive count in a compact rack footprint will benefit from the twelve-bay chassis and hardware RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60 support. The system ships without an operating system and includes only one processor, so environments requiring dual-socket compute density or pre-loaded software should consider other configurations.

Twelve 3.5-inch hot-plug drive bays

The defining specification is the twelve-bay 3.5-inch hot-plug backplane that accepts SAS and SATA drives. With three 300GB 15K SAS drives already installed and a maximum raw capacity of 52TB, this chassis determines whether the server fits the intended storage scale.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and what must I buy separately?

The server includes one E5-2630 v3 processor, 8GB DDR4, three 300GB 15K SAS drives with trays, an H330 RAID controller, two 750W redundant power supplies, a DVD drive and a 4-port 1GbE daughter card. Operating system, additional CPUs, memory, drives and 10GbE networking are not included.

Which memory capacity should I choose for this 24-slot system?

The board has 24 DDR4 slots supporting 4GB, 8GB, 16GB, 32GB, 64GB or 128GB modules up to 2400MT/s; installed memory is 8GB and the platform maximum is 1536GB when both CPU sockets are populated.

What does the 12Gbps H330 controller mean for the three 300GB 15K SAS drives?

The H330 provides 12Gbps SAS connectivity and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60, so the three 15K drives can be configured for redundancy or capacity as needed.
