Dell PowerEdge R730XD 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R730XD is a 2U rack server built for dense storage workloads. It ships with dual Xeon E5-2650 v3 processors, each delivering ten cores at 2.3GHz, and 16GB of DDR4 memory across 24 DIMM slots. The chassis supports up to twelve 3.5-inch hot-plug drive bays and includes a Perc H330 RAID controller.

Suited for storage-heavy workloads, not GPU compute

This server suits teams that need high-capacity SAS or SATA arrays with hardware RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 or 60. It is not suited for buyers who require GPU-dense compute, ARM-based architecture, or more than six PCIe 3.0 expansion slots. The installed three 600GB 15K SAS drives and DVD ROM provide a starting point for database or virtualisation hosts.

12-bay 3.5-inch chassis with H330 RAID

The single specification that decides fit is the twelve-bay 3.5-inch hot-plug chassis paired with the H330 12Gbps controller. Max raw capacity reaches 52TB using SAS or SATA drives. Memory can scale to 1536GB across 24 slots at up to 2400MT/s. Dual 750W redundant supplies and iDRAC8 remote management complete the platform.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and what must I buy separately?

The server ships with dual Xeon E5-2650 v3 processors, 16GB DDR4, three 600GB 15K SAS drives in hot-plug trays, the H330 RAID controller, two 750W redundant power supplies, a DVD-ROM and a 4-port 1GbE daughter card. Operating system, additional memory, extra drives, 10GbE networking and iDRAC Enterprise upgrades are not included.

Should I choose the 16GB DDR4 configuration or add more memory now?

The system has 24 DIMM slots (12 per CPU) and supports up to 1536GB total using 4GB, 8GB, 16GB, 32GB, 64GB or 128GB DDR4 modules up to 2400MT/s. The installed 16GB occupies only a few slots, leaving ample room to expand later without removing existing sticks.

What does the H330 12Gbps RAID controller actually deliver in this chassis?

The H330 provides 12Gbps SAS connectivity to the 12 hot-plug 3.5" bays and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60. With the three included 600GB 15K drives you can build a RAID 5 array for capacity with redundancy or RAID 10 for higher write performance, and add more SAS or SATA drives later without changing the controller.
