Dell PowerEdge R730XD 2U Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730XD is a 2U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2650 v3 ten-core processor running at 2.3 GHz. It ships with 64 GB of DDR4 memory installed across 24 DIMM slots and includes three 300 GB 15K SAS drives managed by a PERC H330 RAID controller supporting levels 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60. Dual 750 W redundant power supplies and iDRAC8 remote management complete the package.

Ideal for dense storage workloads

This configuration suits buyers who need up to twelve 3.5-inch hot-plug drive bays in a 2U form factor and hardware RAID for SAS or SATA drives. It is not for buyers who require a second processor installed, more than 64 GB of memory from the factory, solid-state drives included, or 10 GbE networking without adding an optional daughter card.

PERC H330 RAID controller

The installed PERC H330 controller provides 12 Gbps SAS connectivity and determines which RAID levels are available for the twelve drive bays. It supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60, so the choice of this card directly defines the data-protection and performance options for the storage array.

Questions about this item

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

The chassis includes one Xeon E5-2650 v3, 64 GB DDR4, three 300 GB 15K SAS drives, H330 RAID controller, two 750 W redundant supplies, DVD drive and four 1 GbE ports; a second processor, extra memory, additional drives, OS and optional 10 GbE daughter cards are not included.

Which drive-bay count and controller combination should I choose?

The R730XD provides twelve 3.5-inch hot-plug bays wired to the H330 controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60; select this configuration when you need high-capacity SAS or SATA storage with hardware RAID.

What does the 64 GB DDR4 figure mean once the server is running?

All twenty-four DIMM slots are populated to reach 64 GB, so the installed memory already hits the processor's supported maximum; further expansion requires adding a second CPU to unlock the remaining twelve slots.
