PowerEdge R730xd 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server built for data-intensive workloads. It ships with dual Xeon E5-2683 v4 processors running at 2.1 GHz, each providing 16 cores. The system includes 512 GB of DDR4 memory across 16 modules and a PERC H730 storage controller with 1 GB cache. Twenty-four 400 GB SATA SSDs fill the front drive bays.

Suited for dense storage and virtualisation

This configuration targets environments that need high drive density and strong multi-threaded performance, such as virtual desktop infrastructure, database nodes or data-warehouse clusters. The quad-port network daughter card adds two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ links. Buyers who require more than 24 drive bays or a different drive interface should evaluate other platforms.

24-bay 2.5-inch SATA front panel

The chassis provides exactly twenty-four hot-swap 2.5-inch bays wired for SATA and SAS through the H730 controller. All bays are populated with 400 GB enterprise SSDs in this listing. The installed drive count and bay layout are the key constraints when planning capacity expansion or RAID topology.

Questions about this item

What rack depth and rail kit does the 2U R730xd require for mounting?

The server is a 2U rack unit and ships with Ready Rails for standard four-post racks.

How are the 24 SATA SSDs installed, and which step is often missed?

Drives slide into the front 2.5-inch hot-swap bays; the PERC H730 RAID array must be configured in the controller BIOS before the OS sees the volumes.

When will the PERC H730 controller battery need replacement?

The 1GB cache battery typically lasts three to five years; iDRAC 8 Enterprise will alert you when the battery health drops below threshold.
