1U Xeon rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R330 is a 1U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E3-1220 v5 quad-core processor running at 3GHz. It ships with 8GB of DDR4 memory and two 4TB 7.2K SAS drives managed by a PERC H730 RAID controller. Dual redundant 350W power supplies and hot-plug drive bays suit small-business workloads that need continuous uptime in a compact form factor. No operating system is included.

Hot-plug drive and rail installation

Four 3.5-inch hot-plug bays accept SAS or SATA drives without tools, and the PERC H730 supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 for flexible data protection. The server includes a DVD-ROM drive and two PCIe 3.0 slots plus a dedicated internal storage slot for expansion cards. Rail kit, bezel, keyboard, mouse and video cable are not supplied, so budget for those separately if the rack lacks them.

8GB memory and 40TB storage ceiling

Installed memory is 8GB across four DIMM slots that accept 4GB, 8GB or 16GB DDR4 modules up to 2400MT/s; the processor limits actual speed. The specifications list a maximum memory capacity of 8GB for this configuration, while the storage controller supports up to 40TB of raw capacity across the four bays. Networking provides two 1GbE ports via a daughter card, and remote management uses iDRAC8 Express with optional Enterprise upgrades.
