Dell PowerEdge R730XD 2U server

This 2U rack system ships with dual Intel Xeon E5-2609v3 six-core processors at 1.9GHz and 32GB of DDR4 memory across 24 DIMM slots. It includes three 1TB 7.2K SATA drives and a Perc H730 RAID controller with 1GB cache supporting RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60. Redundant 750W hot-swap power supplies and a DVD ROM complete the baseline configuration.

Suits storage-dense workloads.

The twelve 3.5-inch hot-plug bays and 52TB maximum capacity fit backup, archive or near-line database roles where capacity per rack unit matters. The E5-2609v3 tops out at 1.9GHz with six cores per socket, so workloads that need higher single-thread frequency or GPU acceleration should look elsewhere. PCIe 3.0 slots and the daughter card provide 4 x 1GbE networking, with optional 10GbE upgrades available.

12 x 3.5-inch hot-plug drive bays with H730 RAID

The chassis accepts up to twelve 3.5-inch SAS or SATA drives served by the H730 controller, which supports RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 and 12Gbps SAS throughput. This bay count and controller combination is the primary factor when matching the server to a storage topology.

Questions about this item

How many 3.5" drive bays remain open after the three installed 1 TB SATA drives?

The chassis holds up to 12 hot-plug bays; three are occupied, leaving nine available for additional SAS or SATA drives.

What thermal or power ceiling is reached first when both Xeon E5-2609 v3 CPUs run at full load continuously?

The dual 750 W redundant power supplies set the sustained power envelope, and the iDRAC8 monitors inlet temperature to throttle before thermal limits are exceeded.

How loud are the system fans during 24/7 operation in a typical rack environment?

Fan speed is managed by iDRAC8 based on inlet temperature and component load; acoustics vary with workload and rack airflow but remain within Dell's 2U server design targets.
