2U rack server for dense storage

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd packs two 14-core Xeon E5-2683 v3 processors at 2.0 GHz with 3.0 GHz turbo into a 2U chassis. It ships with 64 GB of DDR4-2133 registered ECC memory across four slots. Twenty-four 2.5-inch 2.4 TB 10 K SAS drives connect through a PERC H730 1 GB controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC 8 Enterprise complete the platform.

Sustained throughput on mixed workloads

Twelve-gigabit SAS links and the H730 cache keep sequential and random I/O steady during long database scans or VDI boot storms. The 285 W combined processor TDP is cooled by redundant fans that maintain clock speeds without throttling under continuous load. Quad-port networking with two 10 Gb SFP+ and two 1 GbE ports prevents bottlenecks when the array saturates. Memory bandwidth scales to 1.5 TB across 24 DIMM slots for in-memory datasets.

Replaces sprawling JBOD-plus-compute setups

Teams running separate storage shelves and compute nodes can consolidate into this single 2U unit, cutting cabling, rack space and management overhead. The jump pays off when workloads need both high core counts and local 10 K SAS capacity without external arrays. Buyers who need all-flash latency or GPU density should look elsewhere because the chassis prioritises 24-spindle SAS density over PCIe accelerator room.

Questions about this item

How much heat do the dual 750 Watt Platinum power supplies generate under full load?

Each 750 Watt Platinum supply runs at high efficiency, so waste heat is lower than standard units; exact thermal output depends on total system draw from the two 14-core Xeons, 24 drives and memory.

Which cables and drive trays are required to populate the 24-bay 2.5-inch SAS backplane?

The chassis includes ready rails and a front bezel; 2.5-inch SAS drive carriers and 12Gb/s SAS data cables are needed to install the 2.4TB drives into the H730 controller.

Can the PERC H730 controller manage the existing 2.4TB 10K SAS drives together with older 6Gb/s SATA disks?

The H730 supports 12Gb/s SAS and SATA; it will negotiate down to 6Gb/s for legacy SATA drives, allowing mixed arrays with the installed 2.4TB SAS disks.
