  • 10-core Xeon E5-2650 v3 at 2.3 GHz for compute density
  • 48 GB DDR4 across 24 DIMM slots for memory capacity
  • Three 2 TB 7.2 K SAS drives on H730 RAID controller

2U rack server with 12 drive bays

The Dell PowerEdge R730XD is a 2U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2650 v3 ten-core processor running at 2.3 GHz with 48 GB of DDR4 memory. It includes a Perc H730 RAID controller with 1 GB cache and three 2 TB 7.2K SAS drives installed in hot-plug bays. Dual 750 W redundant power supplies and a DVD-ROM drive complete the configuration.

Suited to storage-heavy workloads with room to grow

This system fits environments that need dense 3.5-inch drive capacity in a compact rack footprint. The chassis supports up to twelve SAS or SATA drives and the controller handles RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. It is not for buyers who need more than one processor installed, who require 2.5-inch drive density, or who want an operating system included.

Single Xeon E5-2650 v3 with ten cores at 2.3 GHz

The installed processor provides ten physical cores and twenty threads via hyper-threading at a base frequency of 2.3 GHz. A second socket is available on the Intel C610 chipset but remains unpopulated. This CPU choice fixes the memory speed ceiling and the PCIe 3.0 lane budget for the six expansion slots and dedicated RAID slot.
