Dense 2U storage server

The Dell PowerEdge R730XD is a 2U rack server with 24 hot-plug 2.5" drive bays, dual Xeon E5-2630 v3 2.4 GHz processors and 64 GB of DDR4 memory. It ships with a Perc H730 RAID controller supporting RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 and two 750 W redundant power supplies. No operating system or drives are included.

Fits high-density SAS/SATA workloads

Buyers who need up to 24 SAS or SATA drives in 2U of rack space will use every bay; buyers who need fewer bays or a different backplane type should look at other chassis. The 24 DIMM slots are already populated to the processor limit of 64 GB, so memory expansion is not possible without a CPU upgrade.

24-bay 2.5" hot-plug capacity

The single specification that decides fit is the 24-bay 2.5" hot-plug layout driven by the H730 controller. If your deployment requires that exact bay count and RAID feature set in 2U, this server matches; if the bay count or drive interface differs, another platform is required.

Questions about this item

How does the dual 2.4 GHz Xeon E5-2630 v3 setup perform in a live workload?

Two eight-core Xeon E5-2630 v3 processors at 2.4 GHz deliver 32 threads with hyper-threading, suited for virtualisation, database and general compute tasks.

What does the H730 12 Gbps RAID controller limit in practice?

The PERC H730 supports SAS and SATA drives at 12 Gbps and handles RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across the 24 bays.

What rack space and rails does the 2U chassis require?

The server occupies 2U of rack height, measures 26.8 inches deep by 17.44 inches wide, and includes a rail kit for mounting.
