DELL PowerEdge R730xd 2U Server

The DELL PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server built for dense storage workloads. It ships with dual Intel Xeon E5-2683 v4 processors running at 2.1GHz with 16 cores each. The system includes 768GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 24 slots and a PERC H730 controller with battery backup supporting multiple RAID levels.

Storage-dense virtualisation and database nodes

This server suits teams running virtual desktop infrastructure, data warehouses or high-performance computing clusters that need local capacity. Twelve 3.5-inch drive bays hold 4TB SATA drives spinning at 7.2K rpm. Buyers who need all-flash performance or more than two processor sockets should evaluate other platforms.

12-bay 3.5-inch SATA chassis

The defining constraint is the twelve 3.5-inch SATA drive bays paired with the H730 controller. This layout fixes the storage interface to 6Gb/s SATA and SAS with hardware RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Confirm that your workload fits the bay count and drive protocol before ordering.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the PERC H730 controller is managing all 12 drive bays correctly after installation?

Open the PERC H730 BIOS utility during boot and verify that all twelve 3.5-inch SATA drives appear in the physical disk list with healthy status and the expected RAID virtual disks are present.

Which components are included with the server and what must be sourced separately?

The system ships with dual Xeon E5-2683 v4 processors, 768 GB DDR4 ECC memory across 24 slots, twelve 4 TB 7.2K SATA drives, PERC H730 1 GB controller, X520/I350 quad-port network card, iDRAC8 Enterprise, dual 750 W PSUs, rails and bezel. No extra parts are required for basic operation.

Which memory configuration should I choose if I need to expand beyond the installed 768 GB?

The board offers 24 DDR4 slots with a 1.5 TB maximum; the current 24 x 32 GB layout fills every slot, so any increase means replacing modules with higher-capacity registered ECC DDR4 DIMMs.
