Dense Storage Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730XD is a 2U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2630v3 eight-core processor running at 2.4GHz with 48GB of DDR4 memory and a Perc H730 RAID controller supporting twelve 3.5-inch hot-plug drive bays. It ships with redundant 750W power supplies, a DVD-ROM drive and iDRAC8 remote management, but without an operating system or any installed drives.

Storage-Focused Deployments

This configuration suits teams that need high raw capacity in a compact rack footprint, supporting up to 52TB of SAS or SATA storage across the twelve bays with RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Buyers who need more than twelve drive bays, installed drives out of the box, or a second processor to reach the 1536GB memory ceiling should evaluate alternative platforms.

Twelve-Bay 3.5-Inch Chassis

The defining specification is the twelve-bay 3.5-inch hot-plug chassis paired with the H730 1GB 12Gbps controller, which together set the maximum usable capacity at 52TB and dictate the SAS or SATA drive types that can be deployed.
