Dense 2U rack server with single Xeon E5-2650 v3

This 2U Dell PowerEdge R730XD arrives as a complete server system for organisations that need high drive density in a compact rack footprint. A single ten-core Intel Xeon E5-2650 v3 processor running at 2.3 GHz provides 20 threads for virtualisation or database workloads. The chassis supports up to 24 hot-plug 2.5-inch bays and ships with redundant 750 W power supplies.

Suited to storage-heavy workloads.

Buyers running storage-intensive applications such as software-defined storage, backup targets or media archives benefit from the 24-bay SAS/SATA layout and H330 RAID controller supporting RAID 0/1/5/10/50/60. The single-socket configuration and absence of installed GPUs make this platform a poor fit for AI training, rendering farms or workloads that require PCIe accelerators.

Three 1.2 TB 7.2K SAS drives on H330 controller

The server includes three Dell 1.2 TB 7.2K rpm 6 Gbps SAS drives connected to the H330 12 Gbps RAID controller. This starter set delivers immediate capacity for operating system and application data while leaving the remaining bays available for expansion toward the 52 TB maximum raw capacity.

Questions about this item

Will my existing 6Gbps SAS drives work in the 24-bay 2.5-inch chassis?

Yes, the backplane accepts both SAS and SATA drives and the H330 controller supports 6Gbps SAS, so current drives will operate at their rated speed.

How can I confirm the single E5-2650 v3 and 8GB DDR4 are recognised at first boot?

Open the iDRAC8 web interface or enter the BIOS; both will show one ten-core Xeon at 2.3GHz with hyper-threading giving 20 threads and the single 8GB DDR4 module.

Are the three 1.2TB SAS drives and their hot-plug trays included, and is an operating system supplied?

The three 1.2TB 7.2K SAS drives ship with trays installed; no operating system is included, so you must provide your own OS media or image.
