Dense 12-bay storage server
The Dell PowerEdge R730xd packs twelve 3.5-inch drive bays into a 2U rack chassis, dual Xeon E5-2690 v4 processors at 2.6 GHz and 512 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. The PERC H730 SAS controller manages RAID across SATA drives, while integrated graphics and an iDRAC8 Enterprise licence handle remote administration. Dual 1100 W supplies and a quad-port Intel network card with two 10 GbE and two 1 GbE links complete the platform.
Replaces smaller 2U arrays
Moving from an 8-bay or 6-bay server adds four to six extra spindles without increasing rack height, and the jump to 14 cores per CPU raises thread count for virtualization or database workloads. The upgrade is worth it when storage density and parallel compute must grow together in the same 2U slot, and when the existing PERC H730 firmware stack can be retained.
Verify rack depth and power
Confirm the 36-inch depth fits your cabinet with cable clearance, and that the facility can deliver two 1100 W feeds on separate circuits. Check that the PERC H730 RAID level you plan matches the drive count and that the iDRAC8 Enterprise licence is activated for the intended management network. No drives ship installed, so source compatible 3.5-inch SATA media before deployment.

Questions about this item
What rack depth is required for the 36-inch deep chassis?
The server is 36 inches deep so the rack must provide at least that much usable depth plus cable clearance at the rear.
What is the correct order for installing the two Xeon E5-2690 v4 processors and the 512 GB DDR4 memory?
Both CPUs are already installed; populate the 24 DIMM slots evenly across the two processors following the balanced configuration guide.
When should the PERC H730 controller battery be checked or replaced?
The controller uses a battery-backed cache; plan to test the battery after three to five years and replace it if the learn cycle reports a fault.
