Dell PowerEdge R730XD 2U Rack Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730XD is a 2U rack server designed for storage-dense workloads. It ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2609v3 six-core processor at 1.9 GHz and 8 GB of DDR4 memory. The chassis supports up to twelve 3.5-inch hot-plug SAS or SATA drives.

Suits storage-focused deployments.

This configuration fits organisations that prioritise internal capacity and RAID flexibility over raw CPU throughput. Buyers who need more than six cores per socket, larger memory footprints, or additional PCIe expansion should evaluate alternative configurations.

H730 RAID controller with 1 GB cache

The integrated Dell PERC H730 controller provides 1 GB of cache and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across the twelve drive bays. This specification determines the array topology and data-protection options available for the installed 4 TB SAS drives.

Highlights

  • 12 hot-plug 3.5" drive bays for high-density storage
  • Dual 750W redundant power supplies maintain uptime
  • H730 1GB 12Gbps RAID controller supports RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60
  • Xeon E5-2609v3 six-core 1.9GHz processor handles core workloads
  • 24 DDR4 DIMM slots allow memory expansion up to 1536GB

Questions about this item

Should I choose the single E5-2609v3 or add a second processor?

The server supports up to two processors. A second CPU doubles core count and unlocks the remaining 12 DIMM slots for memory expansion beyond the installed 8GB.

What does the 1.9 GHz clock speed deliver in a real workload?

Six cores at 1.9 GHz handle multi-threaded server tasks such as virtualization, databases and file services with steady throughput and low power draw.

How does the H730 12Gbps SAS controller limit drive performance?

The controller caps each SAS drive at 12 Gbps and supports RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 across up to 12 hot-plug bays, so total array speed scales with the number of drives installed.
