DELL PowerEdge R730xd 24SFF 2x Xeon E5-2667v3 768GB DDR4

24-bay 2.5" rack server for dense storage

This Dell PowerEdge R730xd fits 24 small-form-factor drives in a 2U chassis and ships with dual Xeon E5-2667v3 CPUs at 3.2GHz plus 768GB of DDR4 memory. The PERC H730 SAS controller manages RAID across SATA or SAS disks. Integrated graphics and iDRAC8 Enterprise remote management come standard. No drives are installed so you populate the bays to match capacity and performance needs.

Suits storage-heavy workloads; not for GPU compute

Database, virtualisation and backup targets that need many spindles in minimal rack space fit this platform. The 24-bay layout supports high raw capacity with SAS or SATA media. Buyers who need more than two processors or who require GPU acceleration should evaluate other platforms. The memory is already at the 768GB maximum so expansion is not possible.

24-bay 2.5" chassis decides density

The defining spec is the 24-drive 2.5-inch front bay count which sets the storage density ceiling for this 2U server. All other capabilities — dual 3.2GHz Xeons, 768GB DDR4, PERC H730 RAID, dual 1100W supplies — serve that bay count. If the workload needs fewer bays or a different form factor this model is overspecified.
