Boost peak performance
Accelerate application performance with the latest technologies and dynamic local storage. Quickly and easily scale up with front-access devices, ranging from low-cost SATA hard drives to ultra-fast, low-latency 1,8” PowerEdge Express Flash NVMe PCIe SSDs. Use hybrid storage configurations to adapt the R730xd to your workload needs and implement tiered storage efficiencies. Combine 24-drive capacity with dual PERC capability to boost storage performance and take advantage of new Dell caching technologies to further increase application performance.
Discover greater versatility
Unlike previous PowerEdge servers, the R730xd can be tailored for application performance by combining high-speed 1,8” SSDs and high-capacity, low-cost 3,5” hard drives in a single hybrid chassis, enabling access accelerated to data through server storage tiers
- In its 24-drive dual PERC configuration, the R730xd can be an excellent database server, delivering over a million IOPS performance.
- Combine 26 drives with 24 memory DIMMs and six PCI Express (PCIe) expansion slots to provide a feature-rich virtualization environment.
- With up to four ultra-fast, ultra-low latency Express Flash NVMe PCIe SSDs, the R730xd can boost performance on critical workloads and share cache with another server.
- In its cost-effective 16 x 3,5” drive configuration with a capacity of up to 100TB, the R730xd is an excellent Microsoft SharePoint and Exchange server for unified communications and collaboration (UC&C) and offers the scalable storage efficiency that providers demand of today's XaaS, Hadoop / big data users and colocation hosting.

Speed up your workloads
Flash Storage Anywhere or Anywhere: As new flash-capable configurations mean quick access to data for faster application performance. Configurations include 1,8” SATA SSDs, 12Gb SAS SSDs, and ultra-high-performance NVMe Express Flash PCIe drives.
- Flexibly leverage SSDs to maximize application performance. With flexible zoning and dual PERC cards, you can now flexibly leverage SSDs to maximize performance across 4 SSDs + 20 HDDs, 8 SSDs + 16 HDDs, or 12 SSDs + 12 HDDs.
- Improve database performance using flash drives to store “live” data, while having up to 48TB 1 server-based storage with NL-SAS / SATA HDDs.
- Increase concurrent usage and system responsiveness for OLTP applications combining NVMe drives and Dell caching solutions.
- Provides storage scalable efficient and high performance for IT providers as a service (XaaS), big data users (Hadoop) and co-location hosting combining traditional hard drives and solid state flash drives to ensure data is where it's needed, when it's needed.
Unified Communications and Collaboration
- Enable more, larger, low-cost mailboxes with 33% more storage unit capacity than previous generations.
- Improve response times with up to 15 percent more memory bandwidth than previous generations and help boost IO performance with the customizable transfer rate of Dell Select network adapters.
- Improve overall Exchange performance with 9Gb PERC12 RAID controllers, featuring double the cache and transfer rate over previous generations.
- Optimize Lync Performance and Responsiveness in Virtual Environments directly mapping more VMs to the greatest number of physical processor cores.
Storage Virtualization
The latest Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 v4 product family, with up to 22 cores per socket, provides the cycles and threads needed to support today's diverse workloads in virtual environments, including virtualized local storage. To further enhance these deployments, the R730xd features:
- RAM DDR4 which supports more larger, high-performance virtual machines per node, consuming up to 30 percent less power than previous generation DDR3 RAM
- Multimode RAID Controllers with twice the storage bandwidth of previous generations
- Compatibility with software defined storage (SDS) solutions, such as Microsoft Storage Spaces, VMware Virtual SAN (vSAN) and OpenStack Ceph
