Dense 2U rack server for storage-heavy workloads

The Dell PowerEdge R730XD fits twenty-four 2.5-inch hot-plug bays into a 2U chassis. A single Intel Xeon E5-2650 v3 ten-core processor at 2.3 GHz supplies twenty threads. Forty-eight gigabytes of DDR4 memory populate the system, and a Dell PERC H330 controller manages RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60 across the drive array.

Suits teams needing maximum drive density

This configuration targets databases, backup targets and software-defined storage clusters that benefit from twenty-four front-accessible bays. Buyers who require dual-processor compute density or installed solid-state drives should evaluate other platforms. The single-socket layout also limits total memory capacity to forty-eight gigabytes in this build.

Twenty-four 2.5-inch hot-plug bays define

With up to twenty-four drives supported, raw capacity scales to fifty-two terabytes using the largest compatible disks. The H330 controller provides twelve-gigabit-per-second SAS connectivity for each bay. This bay count is the decisive factor when matching the server to a storage footprint.

Questions about this item

How much processing power does the single E5-2650 v3 at 2.3 GHz deliver in this server?

The installed processor has 10 cores and supports 20 threads with Hyper-Threading, giving 20 virtual cores for multi-threaded workloads. A second CPU can be added later to double that capacity.

What drive speeds and RAID levels does the H330 controller support with the 24 bays?

The H330 is a 12 Gbps SAS/SATA RAID controller handling RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60 across up to 24 hot-plug 2.5-inch bays.

What are the exact dimensions and weight for rack planning?

The 2U chassis measures 26.8 inches deep, 17.44 inches wide and 3.4 inches high, weighing 60 lbs.
