Dense 2U compute node

The PowerEdge R730xd packs two 14-core Xeon processors and 768 GB of DDR4 ECC memory into a 2U rack chassis with redundant 750 W power supplies, iDRAC8 Enterprise management, and 24 front-accessible 2.5-inch drive bays served by an H730 RAID controller. Dual 10 Gb SFP+ and dual 1 GbE ports are built in.

Virtualisation hosts and storage-heavy workloads

The high core count, large memory capacity, and 24-bay density suit virtualisation clusters, database nodes, and software-defined storage tiers that need many spindles or SSDs in a single shelf. Buyers who need GPU acceleration, more than two sockets, or a smaller 1U footprint should evaluate other platforms.

24-bay 2.5-inch SAS/SATA backplane

The chassis provides 24 hot-swap trays connected to the PERC H730 controller, setting the maximum drive count and the storage protocol for the system. Any expansion beyond 24 devices requires external enclosures.

Questions about this item

Will the PERC H730 controller battery need replacement and how often?

The PERC H730 1GB controller includes a battery-backed cache module; the battery typically lasts several years and should be replaced when the iDRAC 8 Enterprise reports a degraded or failed battery status.

What thermal limit appears first when all 24 drive trays and both 14-core Xeon E5-2683 v3 CPUs run continuously?

The dual 750 W platinum power supplies and redundant fan array are designed to keep CPU and drive temperatures within spec; the first limit encountered is usually the drive-tray airflow ceiling before CPU throttling activates.

How loud and how much power does the server draw with both 750 W PSUs loaded under 24-bay sustained I/O?

With two 750 W platinum supplies the system draws up to the rated supply capacity under full load; acoustic output scales with fan speed driven by CPU and drive temperatures measured by iDRAC 8 Enterprise.
