Dense 2U storage server

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd fits twelve 3.5-inch drives and two 22-core Xeon processors into 2U of rack space. It targets teams that need high local capacity alongside strong multi-threaded compute for databases, virtual desktops or data-warehouse nodes.

Verify rack power and networking

Confirm the cabinet can supply two 750-watt feeds and that 10-gigabit SFP+ uplinks match your switch ports. The system uses LGA 2011-3 sockets and 24 DDR4 slots, so any future CPU or memory changes must stay within that platform.

Replaces smaller 2U boxes or tower stacks

Moving up from an 8-bay 2U chassis or a cluster of tower servers consolidates licences, cabling and floor tiles. The jump pays off when workloads need more spindles and cores without expanding beyond 2U.

Questions about this item

What components are included with the server and what must I purchase separately?

The unit ships with 2x Intel Xeon E5-2699 v4 2.2GHz 22-core processors, 512GB DDR4 ECC memory (16x 32GB modules), PERC H730 1GB controller, 12x 6TB 7.2K SATA 3.5" drives, X520/I350 quad-port network card, iDRAC8 Enterprise, 2x 750W platinum PSUs, rails and bezel. OS licences, additional drives or memory must be bought separately.

Which memory configuration should I choose for this 24-slot system?

The 512GB kit fills 16 of the 24 DDR4 slots with 32GB registered ECC modules at 2400MHz, leaving 8 slots free for future expansion up to the 1.5TB maximum.

What does the 2.2GHz base clock with 3.6GHz turbo mean for real-world performance?

Each of the 44 cores runs at 2.2GHz base and can boost to 3.6GHz under load, delivering high multi-threaded throughput for virtualisation, databases and HPC data-node workloads.
