Purpose-built 24-bay 2U server

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server fitted with twenty-four 2.5-inch drive bays. Dual Intel Xeon E5-2640 v3 processors provide sixteen cores at 2.6 GHz with 3.4 GHz turbo. Sixty-four gigabytes of DDR4 registered ECC memory and a PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache support RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Two 300 GB 10K SAS drives, quad-port networking and iDRAC 8 Enterprise complete the platform.

Fit for dense storage workloads

This configuration suits organisations that need high drive count in a 2U form factor for databases, virtual desktop infrastructure or data-warehouse nodes. The dual-socket limit and SAS interface mean buyers who require more than two processors or all-flash arrays with different interfaces will not find those capabilities here.

Storage controller defines expandability

The PERC H730 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA controller with battery-backed cache is the single component that determines which drives and RAID levels can be added. Its 1 GB cache and support for pass-through mode set the boundary for future storage growth.

Questions about this item

What drives, rails and bezel are included, and what must I buy separately?

The server ships with two 300 GB 10K SAS drives, ready rails and a front bezel. Additional 2.5" SAS or SATA drives for the remaining bays and SFP+ modules for the 10 GbE ports are not included.

Should I choose the 64 GB configuration or add more memory later?

The system includes 64 GB as four 16 GB DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC modules, leaving 20 of 24 slots free for expansion up to 1.5 TB.

What does the 2.6 GHz Xeon speed deliver in practice?

Each of the two 8-core E5-2640 v3 processors runs at 2.6 GHz base with 3.4 GHz turbo, providing 16 cores and 32 threads for virtualisation, databases or HPC workloads.
