Dell PowerEdge R430 1U rack server

This 1U rack server ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2650 v3 ten-core processors running at 2.3GHz and 48GB of DDR4 memory. A Dell PERC H330 RAID controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60 across up to eight 2.5-inch hot-plug drive bays. The chassis includes a single 550W redundant power supply and a DVD-ROM drive.

Ideal for virtualisation hosts and database nodes

The dual ten-core CPUs provide 40 threads for multi-threaded workloads such as virtualisation clusters or database engines. The memory slots are fully populated at 48GB, so buyers who need more RAM must replace modules rather than add them. Only two PCIe 3.0 slots are available, limiting expansion for additional network or storage controllers.

Memory ceiling fixed at 48GB

The specification lists a maximum memory capacity of 48GB across twelve DDR4 DIMM slots, meaning the installed 48GB already reaches the supported limit. Any requirement for larger memory configurations would need a different server platform.

Questions about this item

Will the 48 GB DDR4 limit at 2400 MT/s bottleneck the dual E5-2650 v3 CPUs under sustained load?

The installed 48 GB DDR4 runs at up to 2400 MT/s and the memory ceiling is 48 GB; the dual 10-core 2.3 GHz Xeons can address 384 GB across 12 slots, so sustained workloads that need more capacity will hit that limit first.

How much heat and power does the 550 W redundant supply draw when the R430 runs 24/7 with both 10-core CPUs at full tilt?

The single 550 W hot-swap PSU powers the dual 2.3 GHz Xeons, H330 controller and up to eight 2.5" drives; with redundant design the unit shares load between modules, keeping fan noise lower than single-supply 1U servers.

Which drive trays and rails must I already own to populate the eight 2.5-inch hot-plug bays on this R430?

The chassis accepts eight 2.5" SAS or SATA hot-plug drives but trays, rail kit and bezel are not included; you need Dell 2.5" hot-plug trays and a compatible R430 rail kit to install drives and mount the 1U server.
