Dense 2U storage server

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd fits twenty-four 2.5-inch drive bays into a 2U rack chassis, delivering high local capacity for data-intensive workloads such as databases, virtual desktop infrastructure and high-performance computing data nodes. Dual Xeon E5-2660 v3 processors provide twenty total cores at 2.6 GHz with 3.3 GHz turbo, while 128 GB of registered ECC DDR4 memory supports large working sets.

From fewer bays or slower drives

Replacing a server limited to eight or twelve bays or running 7.2 K RPM drives, this configuration adds 24 bays of 10 K RPM SAS storage behind a PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache and battery-backed write protection. The jump is worth it when IOPS and throughput for mixed read-write workloads exceed what smaller arrays or slower spindles can sustain.

Build around dual CPUs and quad networking

The system requires LGA 2011-3 cooling and power infrastructure for two 750 W platinum supplies, and it occupies a standard 2U rack space with included rails. Twelve free DDR4 slots allow expansion to 1.5 TB, while the X520/I350 daughter card supplies two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports, freeing PCIe slots for additional adapters. iDRAC 8 Enterprise enables remote management without a dedicated console.

Questions about this item

Will the included rails fit a standard 2U rack opening?

The server is a 2U rack-mount unit that ships with ready rails; the chassis accepts 24 front-accessible 2.5-inch drive bays.

What is the common mistake when seating the PERC H730 controller during installation?

The PERC H730 1GB mini controller installs in a dedicated internal slot; the battery module must be connected before closing the chassis or the RAID cache will not be protected.

Which memory specification must replacement DIMMs match?

Replacement modules must be DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC; the system has 24 slots and supports up to 1.5 TB total capacity.
