2U 12-bay rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack-mounted server built for data-intensive workloads. It ships with dual Intel Xeon E5-2683 v4 processors, 64 GB of DDR4 memory and twelve 8 TB hard drives. The system targets enterprises running databases, virtual desktop infrastructure or high-performance computing nodes.

Dual-socket capacity and storage density

Organisations that need two processors and twelve 3.5-inch drive bays in a compact rack height will match this configuration. Buyers who require more than 1.5 TB of memory, more than two CPUs or solid-state drives installed from the factory should evaluate alternative platforms.

PERC H730 storage controller

The installed Dell PERC H730 1 GB controller manages the twelve SATA drives with RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 support plus pass-through mode. This controller choice determines the RAID levels and drive connectivity available without additional hardware.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 12-bay 3.5" chassis or a smaller drive count for this server?

The 12-bay 3.5" chassis holds all 12 installed 8TB SATA drives, giving maximum raw capacity in a 2U rack space.

What does the 2.1 GHz base clock with 3.0 GHz turbo mean for real workloads?

Each Xeon E5-2683 v4 runs at 2.1 GHz base and can boost to 3.0 GHz under load, providing 16 cores per processor for multi-threaded tasks.

How does the PERC H730 controller and SATA interface affect storage performance?

The PERC H730 1GB controller manages the 12 SATA drives at 6 Gb/s with RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through modes.
