12-Bay 3.5" 2U Server

This Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rackmount server system designed for midsize and large enterprise workloads. It ships with dual Intel Xeon E5-2683 v4 processors, each running at 2.1GHz with 16 cores. The system includes 128GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 8 modules. Twelve 3.5-inch drive bays come populated with 8TB 7.2K SATA hard drives.

Suited for high-capacity storage nodes

The twelve 3.5-inch bays and H730 controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60 make this server a fit for data warehouses, databases, and virtual desktop infrastructure. Dual 750W platinum power supplies and iDRAC8 Enterprise provide redundancy and remote management. Buyers needing solid-state speed should look at alternative platforms. The LGA 2011-3 socket and maximum of two processors limit future CPU upgrades.

1.5TB maximum memory capacity

The server board provides 24 DDR4 slots and supports up to 1.5TB of registered ECC memory. This ceiling decides whether the platform can grow with your workload or if a denser memory platform is required. Current population uses 8 of 24 slots, leaving room for expansion. The Intel C610 chipset and 12Gb/s SAS/SATA controller round out the core specifications.

Questions about this item

What rack mounting hardware is included with this 2U server?

The unit ships with Dell Ready Rails and a front bezel for installation in a standard rack cabinet.

How are the 128GB of DDR4 memory modules arranged, and what slot configuration should I verify before adding more?

The 128GB is populated as eight 16GB DDR4 2400MHz registered ECC modules across the 24 available slots, leaving 16 slots free for expansion up to 1.5TB total.

Which drive components in the 12-bay array will require monitoring or eventual replacement?

The twelve 8TB 7.2K SATA 3.5-inch hard disk drives are mechanical devices with moving parts; plan to monitor SMART health and replace any that report errors or exceed their rated workload limits.
