Dense 2U Storage Compute

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server built for workloads that demand high drive density and strong multi-threaded performance. Dual Xeon E5-2660 v3 processors deliver 20 cores at 2.6 GHz with 3.3 GHz turbo, while 512 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 16 modules supports large virtualisation clusters or in-memory databases. A PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache manages 24 front-accessible 2.5-inch 600 GB 10 K SAS drives, and dual 750 W platinum power supplies provide redundancy.

Virtualisation and Data-Intensive Nodes

This configuration suits teams running hypervisors, VDI farms, data-warehouse nodes or HPC storage tiers that benefit from many spindles and dual 10 GbE SFP+ ports on the X520/I350 daughter card. Buyers who require solid-state primary storage or GPU-accelerated compute should evaluate other platforms. The 24-bay chassis leaves no room for additional internal drive cages, and the LGA 2011-3 platform limits future processor upgrades to the same generation.

24-Bay 2.5-Inch SAS Chassis

The defining specification is the 24-bay 2.5-inch SAS backplane paired with the H730 RAID controller, which together determine whether the server fits a given storage topology. Only 2.5-inch SAS or SATA drives are natively supported, and the controller offers RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. Confirm that the drive form factor, interface and RAID requirements match this layout before purchase.
