DELL PowerEdge R730xd 24SFF 2x Xeon E5-2660v4 768GB DDR4

Dell PowerEdge R730xd 24SFF Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack-mount server system designed for dense storage workloads. It ships with dual Intel Xeon E5-2660v4 processors, each offering 14 cores and 35 MB cache, and a full 768 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. The chassis provides 24 front-accessible 2.5-inch drive bays managed by a Dell PERC H730 SAS RAID controller. Remote administration is handled through iDRAC8 with an Enterprise licence.

Suits storage-heavy workloads

This configuration suits environments that need maximum drive density and large memory capacity in a 2U form factor, such as software-defined storage clusters, backup repositories or database nodes. The system has reached its maximum installed memory of 768 GB and supports only two processors, so buyers who require further CPU or RAM expansion should consider a different platform. No drives are included, so storage media must be sourced separately.

24-bay 2.5-inch SAS chassis

The single specification that determines fit is the 24-bay 2.5-inch SAS chassis paired with the PERC H730 controller. It dictates the type and quantity of drives you can install and the RAID levels available. Verify that your workload matches this bay count and SAS interface before purchase.
