PowerEdge R730XD 2U server for dense storage

This 2U rack server ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 eight-core processor running at 2.4GHz, 8GB of DDR4 memory, and three 1TB 7.2K SATA drives behind a PERC H730 RAID controller. It targets organisations that need up to 24 hot-plug 2.5-inch drive bays in a compact chassis for databases, virtualization hosts, or backup repositories. The system supports a second processor and up to 1536GB of total memory across 24 DIMM slots.

Verify rack depth, power circuits.

The chassis measures 26.8 inches deep and 3.4 inches high, so confirm your rack has sufficient clearance and airflow for a 2U unit. Two redundant 750W power supplies require matching PDU outlets and voltage compatibility. No operating system is included; prepare installation media and licences for your chosen hypervisor or OS before deployment. The PERC H730 supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60 — decide the desired level during initial configuration.

H730 controller, redundant power.

The included PERC H730 with 1GB cache enables hardware RAID across the three factory-installed drives and any additional SAS or SATA disks you add. Dual 750W supplies provide failover without downtime. iDRAC8 Express offers out-of-band monitoring and remote console access; Enterprise features and vFlash media are optional upgrades. A DVD-ROM drive and up to six PCIe 3.0 slots plus a dedicated RAID slot are available for further expansion.

Questions about this item

Does the server come with drive trays for the 24 bays, or do I need to buy them separately?

The three 1 TB drives ship with their trays installed; trays for any additional drives are not included and must be purchased separately.

Should I select the single E5-2630 v3 or add a second processor for this configuration?

A second Xeon E5-2630 v3 can be added to reach the maximum of two processors and unlock the full 1536 GB memory capacity across all 24 DIMM slots.

With the H730 controller and three 1 TB drives, what usable capacity does RAID 5 give me?

RAID 5 across the three 1 TB drives provides roughly 2 TB of usable space while protecting against a single drive failure.
