Blade server for dense compute

The Dell PowerEdge M630 is a dual-socket blade server built for high-density deployments. Two Intel Xeon E5-2697 v4 processors deliver 36 cores at 2.3 GHz with 45 MB cache each. 256 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory is installed across the available slots, leaving room to expand toward the 512 GB maximum. The system ships with a PERC H330 SAS storage controller and integrated graphics.

Storage and expansion fit

This configuration suits workloads that need strong multi-threaded performance inside a standard blade envelope. The two 2.5-inch drive bays are populated with 1.8 TB SAS hard drives, so buyers who want more storage or solid-state media will need to look at a different chassis or external array. The 10 GbE 2-port 562T adapter handles network traffic, while iDRAC8 Enterprise provides remote management.

SAS controller and drive interface

The PERC H330 controller manages the SAS hard drives and defines the storage protocol for this blade. Any storage upgrade must use SAS drives compatible with the controller and the 2.5-inch bays.
