1U dual-socket Xeon server

The Dell PowerEdge R430 is a 1U rack-mount server built around two Intel Xeon E5-2603 v3 processors running at 1.6 GHz. It ships with 32 GB of DDR4 memory across twelve DIMM slots and a PERC H730 RAID controller with 1 GB cache. A single 550 W redundant power supply and four 1 GbE ports complete the baseline configuration.

Who this suits and who it does not

This system fits environments that need dense compute in a single rack unit with hardware RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 or 60 across up to eight 2.5-inch hot-plug SAS or SATA drives. Buyers who require more than 32 GB of installed memory, additional PCIe 3.0 expansion beyond two slots, or GPU acceleration beyond the integrated Matrox G200 should evaluate larger platforms.

Build integration notes

The chassis accepts up to 384 GB of DDR4 when all twelve slots are populated with supported modules. Eight drive bays provide up to 16 TB of raw capacity using available trays. Two PCIe 3.0 slots allow storage or networking add-in cards. Remote management is handled by iDRAC8 Express with optional Enterprise upgrades. Rails, bezel, drive trays, keyboard, mouse and video cable are not included.

Questions about this item

What power infrastructure is required for the 550W redundant power supply?

The server includes one 550W redundant hot-swap power supply; a second matching unit can be added for full redundancy.

Will my existing 2.5" SAS or SATA drives work with the H730 controller?

Yes, the H730 12Gbps RAID controller supports up to 8 hot-plug 2.5" SAS or SATA drives and RAID levels 0/1/5/6/10/50/60.

How do I confirm the iDRAC8 remote management is operational after installation?

Connect the dedicated iDRAC network port, then access the iDRAC8 web interface using the default credentials to verify Lifecycle Controller functionality.
