Dell PowerEdge R730XD 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R730XD is a 2U rack server built for storage-dense workloads. It ships with dual Intel Xeon E5-2630v3 eight-core processors at 2.4 GHz and 32 GB of DDR4 memory. A PERC H330 controller manages three 4 TB 7.2 K SAS drives in up to twelve hot-plug 3.5-inch bays, supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60. Redundant 750 W power supplies and iDRAC8 remote management come standard.

Verify rack space, power and memory limits

Confirm your rack can accommodate a 2U chassis measuring 26.8 inches deep and 17.44 inches wide. Ensure the facility provides redundant power circuits for the dual 750 W supplies. The system includes 24 DIMM slots but the installed memory already reaches the 32 GB maximum supported by this configuration, so no further DDR4 expansion is possible without a processor upgrade. Network connectivity defaults to four 1 GbE ports; optional 10 GbE daughter cards require a compatible mezzanine slot.

Hot-plug drive bays and redundant power simplify

Twelve front-accessible 3.5-inch bays allow drive replacement without shutting down the server. The PERC H330 RAID controller occupies a dedicated slot, leaving up to six PCIe 3.0 slots available for additional adapters. Dual hot-swap power supplies keep the system running during a module failure. A DVD-ROM drive is included for legacy media. The iDRAC8 Express interface provides out-of-band monitoring and remote console access over the network.

Questions about this item

Does the server ship with drive trays for the three 4 TB SAS drives, or must I buy them separately?

Trays are included with the installed 4 TB 7.2K SAS drives; the chassis accepts up to 12 x 3.5" hot-plug bays.

Should I choose the 32 GB DDR4 configuration or plan to add modules up to the 1536 GB maximum?

The system arrives with 32 GB DDR4 across 24 DIMM slots; you can populate the remaining slots with 4/8/16/32/64/128 GB DDR4 up to 2400 MT/s.

What RAID levels can the H330 controller actually run with the three 4 TB drives?

The H330 supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60; with three drives you can build RAID 0, 1 or 5 arrays.
