DELL PowerEdge T430 5U server

This Dell PowerEdge T430 is a 5U rack-mounted server system delivered new. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2683 v4 processors running at 2.10 GHz with 16 cores each, 256 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory, and a Dell PERC H730 storage controller with battery backup. Eight 8 TB 7.2K SATA hard drives are installed in the 3.5-inch drive bays.

Suits small offices needing dense storage

The configuration targets small office or remote branch workloads such as file and print serving, mail, messaging, collaboration and web serving where high-capacity SATA storage and dual-processor compute are required. Buyers who need faster solid-state storage, higher memory capacity than 384 GB, or networking beyond dual 1 GbE ports should evaluate other platforms.

8 x 8 TB SATA drives with H730 RAID

The eight 3.5-inch 8 TB 7.2K SATA drives connect to the PERC H730 controller, which supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. This storage layout determines whether the server meets capacity and redundancy requirements for the intended workload.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 256 GB DDR4 configuration or the 384 GB maximum?

The server ships with 256 GB DDR4 installed across eight 32 GB modules; all twelve slots are populated, so reaching 384 GB would require replacing existing sticks.

What does the 2.1 GHz base clock mean when both Xeon E5-2683 v4 CPUs are running a sustained load?

Each 16-core processor runs at 2.1 GHz base and can boost to 3.0 GHz Turbo depending on thermal headroom and core count active.

How does the PERC H730 controller limit the eight 8 TB SATA drives in practice?

The H730 1 GB controller connects at 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 plus pass-through for the installed 7.2K drives.
