Dense 2U Storage Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack system built around two Intel Xeon E5-2683 v4 processors running at 2.1 GHz with 16 cores each. It ships with 64 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across four 16 GB modules and a PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache. Twenty-four 800 GB SATA SSDs fill the front 2.5-inch bays, while dual 750 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC8 Enterprise provide redundancy and remote management.

Suits High-Capacity SATA Workloads

This configuration fits organisations that need a single chassis to hold large volumes of SATA solid-state storage with hardware RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 or 60. The quad-port X520/I350 daughter card delivers two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ links for virtualised or database tiers. Buyers who require more than 1.5 TB of system memory or a different drive interface should evaluate alternative platforms.

24-Bay 2.5-Inch Chassis Decides Fit

The defining constraint is the 24-bay 2.5-inch front panel that locks the server to SATA or SAS solid-state media. With the H730 controller and 24 installed 800 GB drives, the usable raw capacity and RAID level are fixed by this bay count. Confirm the chassis depth and rail clearance in your rack before ordering.

Questions about this item

What rack height does this 2U server occupy in a standard enclosure?

The system occupies 2U of vertical space in a standard 4-post rack. The included ready rails mount to square or threaded front posts and support tool-less installation.

Which step is commonly missed when installing the PERC H730 controller battery?

After seating the controller in the dedicated slot, the battery pack must be plugged into the controller header and the cable routed clear of the drive backplane; the server will not report write-back cache readiness until the battery is connected and charged.

When should the 800 GB SATA SSDs be considered for replacement under heavy write workloads?

Monitor the SSD wear-level indicator in the PERC H730 or iDRAC 8 Enterprise; plan replacement when the media-remaining metric approaches the rated endurance threshold for the 800 GB drives.
