Dense 2U Storage Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server built for capacity-heavy workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2620 v3 processors running at 2.40 GHz, each providing six cores. The system includes 512 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 16 modules and a PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache. Twenty-four 2.5-inch SAS hard drives at 2.4 TB each deliver large raw storage in a compact chassis.

Suited For Database Nodes And Archives

This configuration fits midsize and large enterprises running data warehouses, e-commerce databases, virtual desktop infrastructure or high-performance computing data nodes. The 24-bay front panel and dual 750 W platinum power supplies support continuous operation. Buyers who need solid-state latency or GPU acceleration should evaluate alternative platforms. The server maxes out at two processors and 1.5 TB of memory, so workloads requiring larger CPU counts or memory footprints will not fit.

24-Bay 2.5-Inch SAS Drive Capacity

The defining specification is the 24-bay 2.5-inch SAS backplane populated with 2.4 TB 10K drives. This density determines whether the R730xd matches a storage-first design. The H730 controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. Network connectivity includes dual 1 GbE and dual 10 Gb SFP+ ports on an Intel X520/I350 daughter card. Remote management is handled by iDRAC 8 Enterprise.

Questions about this item

How much memory can the R730xd take before I hit the ceiling?

The system supports up to 1.5TB across 24 DDR4 slots; 512GB is already installed in 16x 32GB modules.

What are the thermal and acoustic characteristics when the dual 750W PSUs and 24 drives run continuously?

Dual platinum-efficiency 750W supplies share the load, and redundant hot-swap cooling handles the 2.4GHz 6-core CPUs and 24-bay chassis under sustained operation.

Which expansion cards or modules are required to use the onboard 10GbE SFP+ ports?

The X520/I350 daughter card provides two 10Gb SFP+ ports; you add compatible SFP+ transceivers or direct-attach cables to activate them.
