Dell PowerEdge R730XD 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R730XD is a 2U rack server built for dense storage workloads. It ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 eight-core processor running at 2.4 GHz and 8 GB of DDR4 memory. Three 1.2 TB SAS drives and a PERC H330 RAID controller are installed. Dual 750 W redundant power supplies support continuous operation.

Suits storage-focused deployments needing many

This server suits teams that need up to 24 hot-plug 2.5-inch bays for SAS or SATA drives and hardware RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60. It also fits environments that rely on iDRAC8 remote management and up to six PCIe 3.0 expansion slots. Buyers who require two processors installed from the factory or more than 8 GB of memory should look at a different configuration.

24 hot-plug 2.5-inch drive bays with H330 RAID

The defining specification is the 24-bay 2.5-inch hot-plug chassis paired with the H330 12 Gbps RAID controller. This combination determines how many drives you can add and which RAID levels are available. The system supports a maximum of 52 TB raw capacity across those bays. Memory can scale to 1536 GB across 24 DIMM slots when a second processor is added.

Questions about this item

How much storage do the three installed 1.2 TB SAS drives provide in a typical RAID 5 array?

RAID 5 uses one drive for parity, so the three 1.2 TB drives yield about 2.4 TB of usable space.

What drive interface does the H330 controller support and what speed does it cap at?

The H330 handles 12 Gbps SAS and SATA drives; installed drives run at 6 Gbps, so that becomes the practical ceiling.

How many 2.5 inch drive bays does the 2U chassis expose for hot-plug use?

The front panel holds up to 24 hot-plug 2.5 inch SAS or SATA bays.
