Dense 2U storage server

The Dell PowerEdge R730XD is a 2U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2609v3 six-core processor running at 1.9 GHz. It ships with 48 GB of DDR4 memory and three 600 GB 15 K SAS drives on a Perc H730 RAID controller. Dual 750 W redundant power supplies and 12 hot-plug 3.5-inch bays complete the platform.

Twelve-bay density for archival workloads

This configuration suits teams that need high spindle count in a compact rack footprint for backup targets, surveillance archives or cold data tiers. The single-socket layout limits compute threads, so virtualisation hosts or database clusters that demand more cores should look elsewhere.

Single E5-2609v3 six-core CPU

The installed processor provides six cores at 1.9 GHz with no hyper-threading. A second socket is empty and can accept a matching Xeon to double the thread count, but the shipping configuration delivers only the single chip.

Questions about this item

What SAS speed does the H730 controller support and what throughput does that cap?

The H730 12Gbps RAID controller supports SAS drives up to 12 Gbps, so the installed 6 Gbps drives run at their native 6 Gbps limit.

What rack depth and width are required to mount the 2U chassis?

The chassis measures 26.8 in deep by 17.44 in wide and weighs 60 lbs; it fits a standard 2U rack space with rails rated for that depth and weight.

How is the H730 RAID controller installed and which slot mistake is common?

The H730 plugs into the dedicated RAID card slot, not a PCIe 3.0 slot; using a PCIe slot instead prevents the controller from functioning.
