DELL PowerEdge R730xd 24x2.5" 2x Xeon E5-2680v4 192GB DDR4 No Drive

Dell PowerEdge R730xd 24-Bay Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server with a 24-bay 2.5-inch chassis designed for storage-dense workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2680v4 processors running at 2.4GHz, each providing 14 cores and 35MB cache. The system includes 192GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC H730 SAS controller with SATA drive support.

Suited for High-Density Storage Deployments

This configuration suits organisations building virtualisation hosts, software-defined storage nodes, or backup targets that need many drive slots in a 2U form factor. The dual 1100W power supplies and iDRAC8 Enterprise licence support remote management and redundancy. Buyers who need more than two processor sockets, more than 768GB maximum memory, or a chassis with fewer drive bays should evaluate other platforms.

24-Bay 2.5-Inch Chassis Capacity

The defining specification is the 24-bay 2.5-inch front chassis, which determines how many drives the server can hold internally. The PERC H730 controller manages these bays over SAS and SATA interfaces. No drives are installed, so the buyer must populate the bays with compatible 2.5-inch media to complete the storage array.
