Dense Storage Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730XD is a 2U rack server built for workloads that demand high internal capacity. Dual Xeon ten-core processors running at 2.3 GHz deliver 40 threads for multi-threaded applications. Sixteen gigabytes of DDR4 memory and a Perc H730 RAID controller support mixed read-write tasks in database or virtualisation clusters.

Twelve-Bay Hot-Plug Chassis

Twelve 3.5-inch hot-plug bays accept SAS or SATA drives, allowing failed disks to be swapped without downtime. The installed H730 controller provides 1 GB cache and supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 for flexible redundancy. Dual 750 W redundant power supplies keep the system running if one unit fails. A DVD-ROM drive is included for legacy media access.

Memory-Capped Configuration

The system ships with 16 GB across 24 DIMM slots, yet the specification lists maximum installed memory at 16 GB, limiting consolidation-heavy deployments. Three 300 GB 15 K SAS drives offer low latency but modest raw capacity. Buyers needing larger memory footprints or all-flash arrays should plan additional investment before deployment.

Questions about this item

What RAID levels does the H730 12Gbps controller support?

The H730 controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across the installed drives.

How many 3.5-inch drive bays does the 2U chassis provide?

The chassis holds up to twelve 3.5-inch hot-plug SAS or SATA bays.

How are the CPUs and memory installed, and what step is often missed?

Two E5-2650 v3 processors are pre-installed; memory must be populated in matched sets per processor to reach rated speed.
