Built for dense storage workloads

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server that combines twelve 3.5-inch drive bays with dual 14-core Xeon processors and 768 GB of DDR4 memory. It ships with a PERC H730 RAID controller, quad-port networking and redundant 750 W power supplies. The platform targets midsize and large enterprises running data warehouses, virtual desktop infrastructure or high-performance computing nodes.

Suits storage-heavy virtualisation

Organisations that need high capacity in a compact rack footprint will benefit from the twelve 8 TB SATA drives and 1.5 TB maximum memory ceiling. Buyers who require more than two processor sockets, GPU acceleration or boot devices beyond the SATA and SAS interfaces listed should evaluate other platforms, as this chassis and chipset do not support those configurations.

Twelve 3.5-inch bays with H730 RAID

The single specification that decides fit is the twelve-bay 3.5-inch backplane paired with the PERC H730 controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. This combination determines whether the server can deliver the raw capacity and redundancy profile your workload demands.

Questions about this item

What rack height and mounting hardware does this 2U server require?

The server occupies 2U of rack space and ships with Ready Rails for mounting in a standard rack.

How are the two Xeon E5-2683 v3 processors and 24 DDR4 memory modules installed, and what step is often missed?

Both LGA 2011-3 sockets are populated and all 24 DIMM slots are filled with 32 GB registered ECC modules; the step often missed is enabling the memory configuration in BIOS after installation.

Which components will need replacement over the life of this server?

The 12 x 8 TB 7.2K SATA drives, the PERC H730 controller battery, and the two 750 W power supplies are the primary items that will require replacement.
