Dense 2U rack server for data-intensive workloads

The PowerEdge R730xd fits twenty-four 2.5-inch bays into a 2U chassis, delivering high local storage density for databases, virtual desktop infrastructure and high-performance computing nodes. Dual Xeon E5-2683 v4 processors provide 32 total cores at 2.1 GHz with 3.0 GHz turbo for heavy multi-threaded throughput.

Redundant 750 W platinum power supplies share load

Hot-swap redundant power supplies maintain uptime during a module failure while platinum efficiency reduces waste heat. The 2U form factor uses front-to-rear airflow across the drive tray and CPU heatsinks to keep thermals stable under sustained load.

PERC H730 controller manages 24 SAS drives

The H730 RAID controller with 1 GB cache supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through, letting you tune redundancy or capacity per workload. Quad-port networking combines two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ links on a daughter card, while iDRAC8 Enterprise gives full remote console and lifecycle control. Rails and bezel are included for immediate rack mounting.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 24× 1.2 TB SAS drives into the 2U chassis, and which step is often missed?

Slide each 2.5" drive into the front hot-swap bays until the latch clicks; the step often missed is pressing the release button fully so the carrier locks and the SAS backplane seats properly.

What maintenance will the PERC H730 controller battery need later?

The 1 GB cache battery on the H730 should be checked annually and replaced if the controller logs a battery-learn failure or shows degraded write-back performance.

What limit appears first when all 32 cores run at 3.0 GHz turbo under sustained load?

The dual 750 W platinum power supplies set the first ceiling; total system draw can approach their combined rating before thermal throttling engages.
