Enterprise 2U rack server

The PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rackmount server built for midsize and large enterprises running data warehouses, e-commerce platforms, virtual desktop infrastructure, databases or high-performance computing nodes. Dual Xeon E5-2680 v4 processors deliver 28 total cores at 2.4 GHz with 3.3 GHz turbo for heavy multi-threaded workloads.

Thermals and power

Two hot-swap 750 W platinum-efficiency power supplies provide redundant power for continuous operation in dense racks. The 2U chassis directs airflow across the dual CPUs, 24 drive bays and memory slots to maintain stable temperatures under sustained load.

Build and connectivity

The server includes 24 front-access 2.5-inch bays populated with 400 GB SATA SSDs behind a PERC H730 controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. A quad-port network daughter card adds two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ links, while iDRAC 8 Enterprise enables full remote management. Ready Rails and a front bezel are included for immediate rack integration.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 24 SATA SSDs into the front bays, and which step is often missed?

Slide each 2.5" drive into a bay until the latch clicks; the step often missed is creating the RAID array in the H730 controller BIOS before the OS sees the volumes.

What maintenance or replacement will the PERC H730 controller need later?

The 1 GB cache module includes a battery that typically requires replacement after several years to keep write-back caching active.

What thermal limit appears first when both Xeon E5-2680 v4 CPUs run at 3.3 GHz turbo under sustained load?

The 2U chassis airflow and dual 750 W PSUs set the practical ceiling; CPU throttling usually occurs before memory or storage limits are reached.
