1U rack server for single-socket workloads

The Dell PowerEdge R330 fits a single Intel Xeon E3-1220 v5 processor in a 1U chassis with redundant hot-swap power supplies. It ships with 4GB of DDR4 memory and two 1TB 7.2K SATA drives managed by a PERC H330 RAID controller. The platform targets small-business file, print or virtualisation tasks that need hot-plug drive bays and lights-out management.

H330 RAID controller and dual drives enable

The bundled PERC H330 supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60 across the two installed 3.5-inch SATA drives, letting the administrator mirror data for uptime or stripe for throughput. Two 350W redundant power supplies keep the server running if one unit fails. iDRAC8 Express provides remote console and lifecycle control without an enterprise licence.

PCIe 3.0 slots and 1GbE limit expansion bandwidth

The system offers two PCIe 3.0 slots plus one dedicated internal storage slot, so additional NICs, HBAs or accelerators compete for the same lane budget. Onboard networking is restricted to two 1GbE ports on a daughter card, capping east-west traffic at gigabit speeds. Maximum memory is 64GB across four DIMM slots, and the four 3.5-inch bays top out at 40TB of raw SATA or SAS capacity.

Questions about this item

Will the 4GB DDR4 memory need upgrading to reach the 64GB maximum?

Yes, the system has four DIMM slots supporting 4GB, 8GB or 16GB DDR4 modules up to 2400MT/s, so additional modules are required to reach the 64GB limit.

Which component limits sustained throughput first, the H330 controller or the 7.2K SATA drives?

The two 1TB 7.2K 6Gbps SATA drives will saturate before the H330 12Gbps RAID controller reaches its ceiling.

How loud and hot does the 1U chassis get with both 350W supplies running continuously?

Dual redundant 350W supplies share the load, keeping each unit cooler and quieter than a single supply at full capacity.
