24-Bay 2U Server with Dual 10-Core Xeons

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2660 v3 processors, each running at 2.60 GHz with 10 cores. It ships with 128 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across eight 16 GB modules. The system includes a PERC H730 1 GB storage controller and two 300 GB 10K SAS drives.

Suits dense storage workloads.

This configuration fits midsize and large enterprises running data warehouses, e-commerce platforms, VDI, databases or HPC data nodes that need many drive bays in a 2U form factor. Buyers who require the throughput of all-flash arrays or higher single-thread clock speeds should look at other platforms.

24 front 2.5-inch bays with SAS/SATA controller

The chassis provides 24 hot-swap 2.5-inch drive bays backed by the PERC H730 controller, which supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. This bay count and controller combination is the deciding factor for storage-heavy deployments.

Questions about this item

What drive bays and controller are available for future storage expansion on the PowerEdge R730xd?

The server provides 24 front-accessible 2.5-inch bays driven by the PERC H730 controller with 1GB cache, supporting SAS and SATA drives in RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 or pass-through mode.

Which component caps sustained compute throughput first on the dual Xeon E5-2660 v3 configuration?

The two 10-core processors run at 2.6GHz base with 3.3GHz turbo; under continuous all-core load the base frequency becomes the limiting factor for steady-state throughput.

How much power do the redundant supplies draw and how loud is the 2U chassis under full load?

Dual 750-watt platinum supplies share the load, and the 2U rack chassis uses temperature-controlled fans that ramp up under sustained heavy workloads.
