  • Redundant 750 W power supplies keep the 2U rack server running through failures

Rack Server for Dense Storage

The Dell PowerEdge R730XD is a 2U rack server built around two Intel Xeon E5-2650 v3 processors, each with ten cores running at 2.3 GHz. It ships with 64 GB of DDR4 memory across 24 DIMM slots and three 300 GB 15K SAS drives managed by a PERC H330 RAID controller. Dual 750 W redundant power supplies and an iDRAC8 remote-management module come standard.

Suits Storage-Heavy Workloads, Not GPU Farms

This configuration fits organisations that need up to twelve 3.5-inch hot-plug bays for SAS or SATA drives and hardware RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 or 60. The four onboard 1 GbE ports handle typical network traffic. Buyers who require GPU acceleration, more than six PCIe 3.0 slots, or 10 GbE connectivity out of the box should evaluate other platforms.

Twelve 3.5-Inch Hot-Plug Bays Define Capacity

The chassis supports a maximum of twelve 3.5-inch drives, setting a raw storage ceiling of 52 TB with current drive sizes. The installed H330 controller manages the three included 300 GB SAS disks and any additional drives you populate. This bay count is the decisive factor when planning storage density for database, backup or archival workloads.

Questions about this item

Does the server need a 2U rack space and front-to-rear airflow to install?

The chassis is 2U high and uses front-to-rear cooling, so it requires a continuous 2U opening in a standard rack with that airflow direction.

Will the 6 Gbps SAS drives supplied with the H330 controller run at full speed in a 12 Gbps backplane?

Yes, the 6 Gbps SAS drives negotiate down to their native 6 Gbps link speed on the 12 Gbps backplane without any configuration change.

How can I verify the dual Xeon E5-2650 v3 CPUs and 64 GB DDR4 are recognised after first boot?

Open the iDRAC8 web interface or press F2 during POST to enter System Setup; both screens show the two 10-core processors, 40 logical threads and 64 GB installed memory.
