Dell PowerEdge R730xd 2U Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server built for dense storage workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2660 v3 processors, each running at 2.6 GHz with 10 cores. The system includes 256 GB of DDR4 memory across 8 modules. Twenty-four 1.2 TB SAS drives are pre-installed behind the front panel.

Suited for storage-heavy nodes.

This configuration suits environments that need high drive counts in a compact chassis, such as data warehouses, VDI storage tiers or HPC data nodes. The 24-bay layout and dual 750 W power supplies support continuous operation. Buyers who need fewer drive bays or a smaller form factor should look at alternative platforms.

24-bay 2.5-inch SAS drive capacity

The defining specification is the 24-bay 2.5-inch chassis populated with 1.2 TB 10K SAS drives. This density determines whether the server fits a workload that prioritises raw capacity and spindle speed over flash latency. The PERC H730 controller manages the array with 1 GB cache and battery backup.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the PERC H730 controller and all 24 SAS drives are healthy after installation?

Open the iDRAC8 Enterprise web interface, check the Storage tab for the H730 battery status and confirm each of the 24 1.2TB SAS drives shows Optimal with no predicted failures.

Which items are included and what must be purchased separately?

The unit ships with 2x Xeon E5-2660 v3 processors, 256GB DDR4 in 8x 32GB modules, H730 controller with battery, 24x 1.2TB SAS drives, X520/I350 quad-port network card, iDRAC8 Enterprise, 2x 750W PSUs, bezel and rails. No extra components are required for basic operation.

Should I choose a different drive capacity or controller for a database workload?

This configuration is fixed at 24x 1.2TB 10K SAS drives and the PERC H730 1GB controller supporting RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60. No alternative capacities or controllers are offered with this listing.
