Built for dense 2.5-inch SAS storage

This 2U rack server ships with twenty-four 300 GB 10K SAS drives managed by a PERC H730 controller that supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Dual Xeon E5-2683 v4 processors provide thirty-two cores at 2.1 GHz with 3.0 GHz turbo, while 64 GB of DDR4 ECC memory occupies four of twenty-four slots. Quad-port networking adds two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ links, and iDRAC8 Enterprise enables full remote management.

Suits workloads that need high spindle count

Database nodes, virtual-desktop hosts and HPC data nodes benefit from the large SAS array and dual-processor throughput. Buyers who require solid-state media should look elsewhere because the configuration ships with spinning SAS disks only. Organisations needing more than 1.5 TB of memory or more than two processors cannot expand this platform further.

Thirty-two cores and twenty-four drive bays decide

The combination of two sixteen-core CPUs and twenty-four hot-swap bays defines whether this server matches the workload. If the application scales across thirty-two threads and fills the drive count, the R730xd is the right part.

Questions about this item

How loud does the R730xd get when the dual Xeon E5-2683 v4 CPUs run at full load all day?

The 2U chassis uses redundant 750 W platinum power supplies and multiple hot-swap fans; under sustained load the fans spin up to keep the two 16-core processors and 24 drive bays within thermal limits, so expect noticeable rack-level noise.

Which cables and drive carriers must I already have to populate the 24 front 2.5-inch SAS bays?

The server ships with 24 Dell 300 GB 10 K SAS drives installed in the hot-swap carriers; no extra carriers or SAS cables are required for the factory configuration.

Will the PERC H730 controller and iDRAC8 Enterprise manage older SATA SSDs I want to add later?

The H730 supports SAS and SATA in RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through, while iDRAC8 Enterprise provides remote monitoring and firmware updates for mixed drive sets.
