Dual Xeon 1U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R430 is a 1U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2603 v3 six-core processors running at 1.6 GHz. It ships with 16 GB of DDR4 memory installed across twelve DIMM slots, supporting a maximum of 384 GB. This configuration targets IT teams deploying virtualisation hosts, database nodes or internal applications in standard rack cabinets.

Hot-plug drive bays and redundant power

Eight 2.5-inch hot-plug bays accept SAS or SATA drives, while the installed PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache manages RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Three 600 GB 15K SAS drives are factory-fitted, leaving five bays open for expansion. A single 550 W redundant power supply and four 1 GbE network ports handle power resilience and baseline connectivity.

iDRAC8 remote management and rail kit

The integrated iDRAC8 Express provides out-of-band monitoring, firmware updates and virtual console access without an operating system. The shipment includes a rack rail kit, bezel, empty drive trays, power cable, DVD-ROM drive, keyboard, mouse and video cable, so the server can be racked and administered immediately.

Questions about this item

What SAS speed does the H730 controller support and what does that limit?

The H730 controller runs at 12 Gbps, so the three 600 GB 15K drives will operate at their native 6 Gbps link speed rather than the controller maximum.

What rail clearance and bay count does the 1U chassis require?

The 1U rack height needs 1.68 inches of vertical space and accepts up to eight 2.5 inch hot-plug SAS or SATA drives in the front bays.

How do I seat the DDR4 modules correctly across the two processors?

Populate the six DIMM slots for each Xeon E5-2603 v3 in matched pairs per channel; the system will not boot if a processor has empty slots while the other is full.
