Dense 2U storage server

The Dell PowerEdge R730XD is a 2U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2630v3 eight-core processor at 2.4GHz with 8GB of DDR4 memory. It ships with a PERC H330 RAID controller and three 1TB 7.2K SATA drives in a chassis that accepts up to twelve 3.5-inch hot-plug bays. Dual 750W redundant power supplies and iDRAC8 remote management come standard.

Suited for capacity-first workloads

This configuration fits backup repositories, archival storage or secondary file services where drive count matters more than raw compute. Buyers who need more than one processor, larger memory footprints or faster flash-based throughput should evaluate other platforms because the installed CPU and 8GB limit are fixed in this listing.

Twelve 3.5-inch hot-plug bays decide fit

The enclosure supports a maximum of twelve 3.5-inch SAS or SATA drives and the H330 controller handles RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60 across them. If the target deployment requires more bays, 2.5-inch density or a different controller feature set, this chassis will not meet the requirement.

Questions about this item

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

The server ships with one Intel Xeon E5-2630v3 eight-core 2.4 GHz CPU and supports a second identical processor for up to 16 physical cores and 32 threads total.

What does the 2.4 GHz clock speed deliver in actual workloads?

The 2.4 GHz base frequency across eight cores gives steady multi-threaded throughput for virtualisation, databases and general-purpose server tasks.

How does the H330 12 Gbps RAID controller limit my drive performance?

The H330 handles 12 Gbps SAS and 6 Gbps SATA links; with the installed 7.2 K RPM SATA drives the practical ceiling is the drive’s own 6 Gbps interface.
