PowerEdge R730xd 12-Bay 2U Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server built for storage-dense workloads. Dual Xeon E5-2683 v3 processors provide 28 cores at 2.0GHz with 3.0GHz turbo. 64GB of DDR4 ECC memory and a PERC H730 controller support RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across twelve 3.5-inch drive bays.

Check Rack Space and Network Needs

Verify you have 2U of rack height and compatible rails for installation. The system requires adequate cooling for dual 750W power supplies. Confirm your network infrastructure supports the quad-port daughter card with two 1GbE and two 10Gb SFP+ connections. Ensure your storage drives are 3.5-inch SATA or SAS models as no drives are included.

Upgrade From Smaller Storage Nodes

This server replaces 1U or tower systems that lack drive density or dual-processor performance. The jump is worth it when workloads demand more than eight drive bays, higher core counts for virtualisation, or hardware RAID with battery-backed cache. It also supersedes older single-socket servers limited to 1.5TB memory capacity.

Questions about this item

Does the server ship with hard drives or do I need to buy 3.5" SAS/SATA drives separately?

The unit includes 12 empty 3.5" trays; no hard drives are installed so you must supply your own SAS or SATA drives.

Is the installed 64 GB (4x 16 GB) DDR4 2133 MHz the maximum or can I add more modules?

There are 24 DIMM slots total and the platform supports up to 1.5 TB, so you can add up to 20 more registered ECC DDR4 modules.

What throughput can the PERC H730 1 GB controller deliver to the 12 drive bays?

The H730 is a 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA RAID controller with 1 GB cache and battery backup, supporting RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 and pass-through modes.
