High-density 2U rack server with 24 SAS bays

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server designed for storage-heavy workloads. It carries two Intel Xeon E5-2683 v4 processors, each running at 2.1 GHz with 16 cores. The system includes 128 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory and twenty-four 2.4 TB 10K SAS hard drives managed by a PERC H730 controller.

Suited for virtualisation and database nodes.

This configuration fits midsize and large enterprises running virtual desktop infrastructure, data warehouses, e-commerce databases or high-performance computing data nodes. The quad-port network daughter card provides two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ links, while iDRAC 8 Enterprise handles remote management. Buyers who require all-flash arrays or GPU-accelerated compute should evaluate alternative platforms.

24-bay 2.5-inch SAS chassis decides storage scale

The defining specification is the 24-bay 2.5-inch front chassis populated with 2.4 TB 10K SAS drives and a 12 Gb/s H730 RAID controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. This density determines whether the server meets capacity and throughput needs for the target workloads. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies and ready rails are included.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 24-bay 2.5" configuration or look for a 3.5" version?

This unit is the 24-bay 2.5" model; it holds twenty-four 2.4TB 10K SAS drives. A 3.5" chassis would reduce the bay count and change the drive form factor entirely.

What does the 2.1GHz base clock with 3.0GHz turbo mean for actual throughput?

Each of the two Xeon E5-2683 v4 processors runs at 2.1GHz base and can boost to 3.0GHz, giving sixteen cores per socket for multi-threaded workloads such as databases or virtualization.

The PERC H730 is a 12Gb/s SAS controller — what does that cap in practice?

The H730 1GB controller supports 12Gb/s SAS and SATA with RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60, so the backplane and drive links set the practical ceiling.
