Dense 2U Storage Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd packs two 18-core Xeon E5-2699 v3 processors running at 2.3 GHz with 3.6 GHz turbo into a 2U rack chassis. It ships with 512 GB of DDR4-2133 registered ECC memory across 16 DIMMs and a PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache driving 24 installed 400 GB SATA SSDs.

Virtualisation and Database Nodes

This configuration suits workloads that benefit from high core counts and all-flash capacity in a compact rack footprint, such as virtual desktop infrastructure, data warehousing or HPC data nodes. Buyers who require more than two sockets, more than 1.5 TB of memory or a different drive interface should evaluate alternative platforms.

24-Bay 2.5-Inch Chassis

The server provides 24 front-accessible 2.5-inch drive bays, all populated with 400 GB SATA SSDs, and the H730 controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Expansion beyond these 24 bays is not possible within this 2U form factor.

Questions about this item

How do I replace a failed 400 GB SATA SSD in the 24-bay chassis?

The 2.5-inch bays are hot-swap; pull the carrier, insert a new Dell Enterprise 400 GB SATA 6 Gb/s SSD, and the PERC H730 will rebuild the RAID automatically.

What limits sustained throughput on the storage controller?

The PERC H730 1 GB cache and 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA interface set the ceiling for combined read/write bandwidth across the 24 installed SSDs.

How much power do the two 750 W platinum supplies draw under full load?

Each supply is rated at 750 W platinum efficiency; with dual CPUs, 512 GB DDR4, and 24 SSDs running continuously, the system draws near the combined capacity of both units.
