High-density 2U rack server with 24 hot-plug bays

The Dell PowerEdge R730XD is a 2U rack server built around dual Intel Xeon E5-2650 v3 ten-core processors running at 2.3 GHz. It ships with 64 GB of DDR4 memory across 24 DIMM slots and a PERC H330 RAID controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60. Twenty-four 2.5-inch hot-plug drive bays provide dense internal storage capacity, while dual 750 W redundant power supplies and iDRAC8 remote management complete the platform.

Suited for storage-heavy workloads needing many

This server fits environments that prioritise internal drive count over expansion cards, such as backup repositories, software-defined storage nodes or archive workloads. The six PCIe 3.0 slots plus a dedicated RAID slot allow some add-in cards, but the chassis is optimised for the 24-bay layout. Buyers who need more than two processors, integrated 10 GbE ports as standard or a larger memory ceiling than the installed 64 GB should evaluate other platforms.

24 x 2.5-inch hot-plug bays define the storage

The single specification that decides fit is the 24-bay 2.5-inch hot-plug backplane, which sets a raw internal limit of 52 TB when populated with compatible SAS or SATA drives. No drives or trays are included, so capacity and performance scale entirely with the drives you add. If your workload demands fewer bays but more PCIe slots or a different form factor, this chassis will not match those requirements.

Questions about this item

How many 2.5-inch drive bays does the R730XD provide for hot-plug SAS or SATA drives?

The chassis holds up to 24 hot-plug 2.5-inch bays that accept SAS or SATA drives, giving dense storage in a 2U form factor.

What is the thermal and acoustic profile when the dual 750 W redundant supplies and both Xeon E5-2650 v3 CPUs run continuously?

Redundant 750 W power supplies and dual 10-core 2.3 GHz Xeons mean sustained load will draw significant power and require forced-air cooling typical of 2U rack servers.

Which components are not included and must be supplied separately for the server to boot and store data?

No hard drives, drive trays, operating system or rail kit are included; you must add SAS or SATA drives, an OS and mounting rails before deployment.
