Dual-Socket 2U Server with 12-Bay Storage

This Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server built for workloads that need dense 3.5-inch drive capacity. Two Xeon E5-2680 v4 processors deliver 28 cores at 2.4 GHz, while 512 GB of DDR4 memory supports heavy virtualization. The PERC H730 controller manages twelve 4 TB enterprise SATA drives in RAID configurations. Dual 750 W platinum supplies and iDRAC8 Enterprise provide redundancy and remote management.

Suits Storage-Heavy Applications.

The twelve-bay chassis and H730 controller target workloads such as data warehouses, VDI storage nodes and backup repositories. Buyers who need GPU acceleration, more than two processor sockets or an all-flash array should look at something else. The system ships with mechanical drives only and no solid-state devices are installed. Network connectivity includes two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports via the X520/I350 daughter card.

12-Bay 3.5-Inch Chassis Defines Maximum Drive Count

The 2U form factor fits exactly twelve 3.5-inch SATA drives, and the PERC H730 supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Memory scales to 1.5 TB across twenty-four DDR4 slots using registered ECC modules. CPU sockets are fully populated at two Xeon processors, so no further processor upgrades are possible. Rails and front bezel are included for immediate rack mounting.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the PERC H730 controller is managing all 12 drive bays correctly after installation?

Open the H730 BIOS utility during boot to confirm all 12 drives appear and the desired RAID level (0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 or 60) is healthy.

Which items are included and which must be purchased separately?

The server ships with 2 Xeon E5-2680 v4 CPUs, 16x 32GB DDR4 RDIMMs, H730 controller with battery, 12x 4TB 7.2K SATA drives, X520/I350 quad-port card, iDRAC8 Enterprise, 2x 750W PSUs, rails and bezel; no extra parts are required for basic operation.

Should I choose the 512 GB DDR4 configuration or add more memory later?

The system has 24 slots and supports up to 1.5 TB; the current 512 GB (16x 32 GB) leaves 8 slots free for future expansion if workloads grow.
