1U rack server for small workloads

The Dell PowerEdge R330 fits a single Intel Xeon E3-1220 v5 quad-core processor at 3GHz with 8GB of DDR4 memory. It ships with two 600GB 15K SAS drives on a PERC H730 RAID controller that supports levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. The chassis provides four hot-plug 3.5-inch bays and two PCIe 3.0 expansion slots.

Dual 350W redundant supplies and iDRAC8

Two hot-swap 350W power supplies share the load so a single failure does not shut the system down. The integrated iDRAC8 with Lifecycle Controller gives remote console, power control and hardware inventory over the network. A Matrox G200eR2 video chip with 8MB cache drives local display output when needed.

Rails, bezel and peripherals are not included

The box contains only a power cable; rail kit, front bezel, keyboard, mouse and video cable must be sourced separately. Memory can grow to 64GB across four DIMM slots using 4GB, 8GB or 16GB DDR4 modules up to 2400MT/s. Storage tops out at 40TB across the four drive bays. Networking is limited to two 1GbE ports on the daughter card.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 3.5" SAS drives in the hot-plug bays, and what step is often missed?

Slide each drive into one of the four 3.5" hot-plug bays until the carrier locks; the step often missed is creating the virtual disk in the H730 controller BIOS before the OS installer can see the volume.

Which components will need replacement first under continuous operation?

The two 600 GB 15K SAS drives and the dual 350 W redundant power supplies are the mechanical parts most likely to require replacement after extended 24/7 use.

What is the first limit reached when the server runs at full load for long periods?

The memory ceiling of 8 GB installed across four DDR4 DIMM slots is the first hard limit encountered during sustained, memory-intensive workloads.
