2U rack server with 24 drive bays

The Dell PowerEdge R730XD is a 2U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2609 v3 six-core processor running at 1.9 GHz. It ships with 8 GB of DDR4 memory and three 300 GB 15K SAS drives managed by a PERC H730 RAID controller with 1 GB cache. Dual 750 W redundant power supplies and an iDRAC8 remote management module are included.

Suited for dense storage arrays

This configuration fits environments that need many hot-plug 2.5-inch bays in a compact chassis, such as software-defined storage clusters or backup repositories. Buyers who require a second processor, larger memory capacity out of the box, or 10 GbE networking as standard should look at other configurations.

Sustained load behaviour

Under continuous workloads the dual redundant power supplies share the load, while the H730 controller maintains RAID parity calculations across the SAS drives without throttling. The 24 DIMM slots allow memory to be expanded later, letting the platform scale as dataset sizes grow.

Questions about this item

Do I need a second Xeon E5-2609 v3 processor to fill the dual-socket board?

The server supports up to two processors but ships with one E5-2609 v3 installed; a second matching CPU is optional.

Can I keep using my existing 6 Gbps SAS drives in the 24-bay chassis?

Yes, the 24 x 2.5" hot-plug bays accept both SAS and SATA drives, so your 6 Gbps SAS disks will work.

How do I confirm the PERC H730 RAID controller is healthy after installation?

Check the iDRAC8 interface or the controller BIOS during POST; both report firmware version, battery status and virtual-disk state.
