Built for dense storage workloads

The PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server with 24 drive bays and two Xeon E5-2680 v3 processors running at 2.5 GHz with 12 cores each. It ships with 256 GB of DDR4 memory and a PERC H730 controller managing 24 SAS drives of 2.4 TB capacity. This configuration targets databases, virtual desktop infrastructure and data-warehouse nodes that need local capacity and compute in one chassis.

Verify rack space and network cabling

Confirm you have a 2U slot with adequate airflow for dual 750 W hot-swap power supplies. The system uses an Intel C610 chipset and LGA 2011-3 sockets, so any future CPU changes must match that platform. Network connectivity relies on a quad-port daughter card providing two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ links — ensure your top-of-rack switches have compatible transceivers and cabling.

Included rails, bezel and remote management

ReadyRails and a front bezel arrive in the box for immediate rack mounting. The iDRAC 8 Enterprise licence enables full out-of-band control, virtual console and automated deployment without extra cost. The PERC H730 includes a 1 GB cache battery, enabling RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode for software-defined storage stacks.
