DELL PowerEdge R730xd 12LFF 2x Xeon E5-2660v3 768GB DDR4

12-bay 3.5" rack server for dense storage

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd fits twelve 3.5-inch drives in a 2U chassis, delivering high capacity per rack unit. Dual Xeon E5-2660 v3 processors at 2.6 GHz provide twenty total cores for multi-threaded workloads. A PERC H730 SAS controller manages RAID across the backplane. Integrated graphics and iDRAC8 Enterprise simplify remote administration.

Suited for archive, backup and object-store clusters

Buyers who need maximum 3.5-inch bay density with dual-socket compute in 2U will match this configuration. The 768 GB DDR4 limit and absence of installed drives mean the system arrives ready for custom storage populations. Organisations requiring GPU compute, higher single-thread frequency or a smaller form factor should evaluate alternative platforms.

768 GB DDR4 ceiling is the capacity gate

Installed memory already reaches the platform maximum of 768 GB across twenty-four slots, so no further RAM expansion is possible. Workloads that demand more memory per node must target a different server generation. Confirm the total capacity satisfies the application before purchase.
