DELL PowerEdge R230 1U rack server E3-1220v5 4GB H330 2 x 3.5" cabled

1U Rack Server with Xeon E3-1220v5

This Dell PowerEdge R230 is a 1U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E3-1220v5 quad-core processor running at 3.0 GHz. It ships with 4GB of DDR4 memory and a Dell PERC H330 12Gbps RAID controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60. The chassis provides two 3.5-inch cabled drive bays for SAS or SATA drives and includes a DVD-ROM drive. A 250W cabled power supply and Matrox G200 graphics complete the base configuration.

Small Business and Remote Office Deployments

The system suits small businesses or branch offices needing a compact, entry-level server for file, print or light application hosting with hardware RAID protection. It also fits IT teams who want iDRAC8 remote management for out-of-band monitoring. Organisations requiring redundant hot-swap power supplies, more than two internal drive bays, higher installed memory or a discrete GPU for compute workloads should evaluate other platforms.

Single-Socket Xeon E3-1220v5 Processor

The server supports a maximum of one processor, and the installed E3-1220v5 provides four cores at 3.0 GHz. This fixed single-socket design sets the performance ceiling for the platform; workloads that demand dual-socket scaling or higher core counts will need a different server chassis.
