Dense 2U compute node

The PowerEdge R730xd fits two Xeon E5-2640 v3 processors and 256 GB of DDR4 memory into a 2U rack form factor. Twenty-four 2.5-inch drive bays provide high local storage density for workloads that keep data close to the CPU. It targets midsize and large enterprises running databases, virtual desktop infrastructure or data-warehouse nodes.

Steady throughput on 24 spindles

The PERC H730 controller manages 24 enterprise 600 GB 10 K SAS drives with a 1 GB cache battery, sustaining RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 or 60 across all bays. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies and redundant hot-swap cooling keep the array and both CPUs at full turbo frequency during extended rebuilds or backup windows. The X520/I350 daughter card adds two 10 Gb SFP+ and two 1 GbE ports for sustained network streams.

Rack-ready with remote control

Dell Ready Rails and the front bezel are included, so the chassis slides into standard square-hole or threaded racks without extra brackets. iDRAC 8 Enterprise gives full out-of-band console, power cycling and firmware update over a dedicated management port. Installers should verify SAS backplane cabling matches the H730 mini form factor and confirm the 2.5-inch drive carriers latch fully, as the dense bay count leaves little finger room.

Questions about this item

How much heat and power draw should I expect from the two 750 W platinum PSUs running 24/7?

Dual 750 W platinum power supplies deliver up to 750 W each with high-efficiency conversion, providing redundant hot-swap operation for continuous 24×7 workloads.

Which cables or drive trays do I need to populate all 24 front bays with the included 600 GB SAS drives?

The chassis ships with 24× 2.5" drive bays and 24× Dell Enterprise 600 GB 10K SAS drives already installed, so no additional trays or cables are required.

Will the PERC H730 controller and X520/I350 network card work with my existing SAS backplane and 10 Gb SFP+ switch?

The PERC H730 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA controller connects to the 24-bay backplane, and the X520/I350 daughter card provides 2× 10 Gb SFP+ plus 2× 1 GbE ports for direct switch attachment.
