PowerEdge R730xd 2U 24-bay server

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server fitted with two Intel Xeon E5-2660 v4 processors running at 2.0 GHz with 14 cores each. It ships with 768 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 24 slots and a PERC H730 storage controller. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC 8 Enterprise provide redundancy and remote management.

Suits dense storage and virtualisation workloads

This configuration targets midsize to large enterprises running data warehouses, e-commerce platforms, virtual desktop infrastructure or high-performance computing nodes. The 24-bay 2.5-inch chassis and dual 10 Gb SFP+ ports support storage-heavy and network-intensive tasks. Buyers who need more than 24 drive bays or a different drive form factor cannot be served by this chassis.

Dual 14-core Xeon E5-2660 v4 at 2.0 GHz

The two 14-core processors deliver 28 total cores with a 3.2 GHz turbo frequency, defining the compute ceiling for any workload placed on this system. Memory can scale to 1.5 TB using the remaining DDR4 slots. If the application demands a higher core count per socket or a newer instruction set, a different server platform is required.

Questions about this item

Does the 12Gb/s SAS/SATA PERC H730 controller cap SSD throughput at 6Gb/s?

The PERC H730 controller supports 12Gb/s SAS and 6Gb/s SATA; the installed 800GB SSDs use the SATA 6Gb/s interface so throughput is limited to that speed.

What physical mounting hardware comes with the 2U chassis?

Ready Rails sliding rails and a front bezel are included for rack installation.

How are the two Xeon E5-2660 v4 processors and 768GB DDR4 memory installed, and what step is often missed?

Both CPUs and all 24 DIMMs are pre-installed; the common oversight is forgetting to enable iDRAC8 Enterprise licensing for remote management after power-on.
