Product Identity

This Dell PowerEdge R730XD is a 2U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2650 v3 processor with ten cores at 2.3GHz. It ships with 64GB of DDR4 memory and three 900GB 10K SAS drives managed by a PERC H330 RAID controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60. Dual 750W hot-swap power supplies and iDRAC8 remote management are included.

Suitability

The 24-bay 2.5-inch hot-plug chassis suits workloads that need dense SAS or SATA storage behind a hardware RAID card, such as virtualisation hosts, backup targets or database nodes. Organisations that require a second processor, more than 64GB of installed memory, or 10GbE networking out of the box should evaluate other configurations.

Deciding Specification

The installed memory is capped at 64GB even though the platform accepts up to 1536GB across 24 DIMM slots, so the single specification that decides fit is whether 64GB meets the working-set size of the intended application.

Questions about this item

Does the H330 controller run the 900 GB SAS drives at 6 Gb/s or 12 Gb/s?

The H330 is a 12 Gb/s RAID controller, but the installed 900 GB 10K drives are 6 Gb/s SAS, so the array will operate at 6 Gb/s per drive.

Will the 2U chassis accept full-height PCIe 3.0 cards in all six slots?

The 2U R730XD supports up to six PCIe 3.0 slots plus a dedicated RAID slot; full-height cards fit, but total length is limited by the 26.8 inch chassis depth.

Can I add a second E5-2650 v3 without changing the memory layout?

The board has 24 DDR4 slots, 12 per processor. Adding the second CPU activates its 12 slots, so the existing 64 GB stays on the first CPU and new modules populate the second bank.
