Dense 2U storage server

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd packs twenty-four 2.5-inch drive bays into a 2U rack chassis, delivering high capacity in a compact footprint. Dual Xeon E5-2660 v3 processors provide twenty cores at 2.6 GHz with 3.3 GHz turbo for compute-heavy tasks. A PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache manages RAID across the installed drives.

Suited for database and virtualisation nodes

This configuration targets workloads that benefit from large memory and many parallel spindles, such as data warehouses, VDI hosts or HPC data nodes. The 512 GB DDR4 ECC memory and twenty-four 800 GB SSDs support heavy read-write patterns. Buyers needing more than two sockets or a newer instruction set should evaluate other platforms.

24-bay 2.5-inch drive count

The chassis accepts exactly twenty-four 2.5-inch SATA or SAS devices, fixing the maximum raw device count before any expansion shelves. All twenty-four bays are populated with 800 GB SSDs in this build. Capacity planning must start from this bay limit.

Questions about this item

What storage interface does the PERC H730 controller use and what throughput does it cap at?

The PERC H730 is a 12Gb/s SAS/SATA controller that supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through modes.

What rail kit and bezel are included for rack mounting?

Ready Rails and a front bezel are supplied for standard rack installation.

How is the storage controller installed and which step is often missed?

The H730 Mini installs in the dedicated internal storage slot; the battery module must be connected for write-back cache to function.
