24-Bay 2U Rack Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server with twenty-four 2.5-inch drive bays. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2660 v4 processors, each running at 2.0 GHz with 14 cores. The system includes 256 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across eight 32 GB modules. A PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache manages storage and supports multiple RAID levels.

Suits storage-heavy workloads

This configuration fits midsize and large enterprises running data warehouses, e-commerce platforms, virtual desktop infrastructure or high-performance computing data nodes. The dense 24-bay chassis provides high local capacity in a compact rack footprint. Buyers who need more than two processors or a different drive form factor should look at other platforms. The installed memory uses DDR4 technology and will not accept other DDR generations.

Dual 14-core Xeon processors

Two Intel Xeon E5-2660 v4 CPUs deliver twenty-eight total cores with a 3.2 GHz turbo frequency. The LGA 2011-3 sockets are fully populated, so no additional processors can be added. This CPU choice determines the server's peak compute capacity for virtualisation and database tasks. The chipset is an Intel C610.

Questions about this item

Does the server include all 24 drive bays populated or must extra 2.5″ drives be purchased separately?

The unit ships with two 400GB SATA SSDs installed; the remaining 2.5″ bays are empty so additional drives must be bought separately.

Which memory capacity matches the 256GB DDR4 already installed?

The system arrives with 256GB configured as eight 32GB DDR4 2400MHz registered ECC modules, filling eight of the 24 available slots.

What does the dual Xeon E5-2660 v4 14-core 2.0GHz setup deliver for virtualisation workloads?

Twenty-eight total cores at 2.0GHz base with 3.2GHz turbo provide high thread density for dense virtual-machine deployments on the C610 chipset.
