Dell PowerEdge R730XD 2U server

This 2U rack server ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 eight-core processor at 2.4 GHz and 8 GB of DDR4 memory across 24 DIMM slots. Three 1 TB 7.2 K SATA drives and a Dell PERC H330 RAID controller supporting RAID 0/1/5/10/50/60 provide up to 52 TB of hot-plug storage in 24 x 2.5-inch bays. Dual 750 W redundant power supplies and iDRAC8 remote management complete the platform.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

Organisations needing dense 2.5-inch SATA or SAS storage with hardware RAID in a 2U form factor will fit this chassis; the 24 drive bays and H330 controller cover RAID 0/1/5/10/50/60. Buyers who require a second processor populated, more than 8 GB of memory out of the box, or an operating system pre-installed should evaluate other platforms.

Deciding specification: 24 x 2.5-inch hot-plug

The chassis accepts up to 24 hot-plug 2.5-inch SAS or SATA drives, delivering a maximum raw capacity of 52 TB managed by the H330 12 Gbps RAID controller. If the workload demands that bay count and SATA/SAS flexibility, this server meets it; if fewer bays or a different drive interface are needed, another model will be more appropriate.

Questions about this item

What is the maximum memory capacity this R730XD can reach with the installed E5-2630 v3 processor?

The system supports up to 1536GB of total DDR4 memory across 24 DIMM slots, with speed up to 2400MT/s dependent on the processor capability.

How much heat and power should I expect from the dual 750W redundant supplies under continuous load?

Two 750W hot-swap power supplies provide redundancy; actual draw and thermal output will vary with the workload and any additional drives or PCIe cards installed.

Which rails or mounting hardware do I need to install this 2U chassis in a standard rack?

The unit measures 26.8" deep and 17.44" wide; verify that your rack rails support that depth and 2U height before installation.
