Dual 14-Core Xeon 2U Server for SAS Density

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd packs two Xeon E5-2683 v3 2.0 GHz 14-core processors and 128 GB DDR4 into a 2U rack chassis with 24 front-accessible 2.5-inch drive bays. A PERC H730 controller manages the installed 24 × 2.4 TB 10K SAS drives, while an X520/I350 daughter card adds dual 1 GbE and dual 10 GbE SFP+ ports. Dual 750 W platinum hot-swap supplies and iDRAC8 Enterprise complete the package.

Suited for Heavy Internal Storage, Not Minimal Bays

Organisations running databases, virtual desktop infrastructure or data-warehouse nodes that demand high core counts and massive SAS capacity in a compact rack footprint will match this configuration. Buyers who need only a few drives or prefer all-flash arrays should look elsewhere.

24-Bay 2.5-Inch SAS Chassis Decides Fit

The 2U enclosure is limited to 24 × 2.5-inch SAS/SATA bays, so the physical drive count and form factor are the single constraint that determines whether this server fits your storage design.

Questions about this item

Will the 2U height and included rails fit a standard server cabinet?

The server occupies 2U of rack space and ships with Ready Rails for mounting in a standard four-post rack.

What is the common mistake when installing the 24 front 2.5" SAS drives?

Inserting the drives without fully seating the carrier latch leaves the SAS connector unplugged and the RAID controller will not detect the disk.

Which components will need replacement after several years of continuous operation?

The PERC H730 controller battery and the two 750 W power supplies are the parts most likely to require replacement over time.
