1U rack server with dual Xeon E5-2650 v3

The Dell PowerEdge R430 is a 1U rack server built around two Intel Xeon E5-2650 v3 processors, each with ten cores running at 2.3GHz. It ships with 16GB of DDR4 memory across twelve DIMM slots and three 1.2TB 7.2K SAS drives managed by a PERC H330 RAID controller. A single 550W redundant power supply and DVD-ROM complete the configuration.

Suits dense compute clusters.

This server suits environments that need high core counts in a single rack unit, such as virtualisation hosts or compute clusters. The installed memory is fixed at 16GB and the specifications list a maximum capacity of 16GB, so workloads requiring more RAM cannot be accommodated. Buyers needing GPU expansion will also find only two PCIe 3.0 slots available.

Storage ceiling set by 16TB maximum drive capacity

The PERC H330 controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60 across up to eight 2.5-inch hot-plug bays. The system specification states a maximum hard-drive capacity of 16TB, which defines the total raw storage limit for this chassis. SAS and SATA drives are both supported in the drive bays.

Questions about this item

How much DDR4 memory can I add to the 12 DIMM slots?

The board has 12 DDR4 slots and supports up to 384 GB total using 4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB or 32 GB modules.

Which component limits sustained throughput on the H330 controller?

The three 1.2 TB 7.2 K SAS drives deliver up to 6 Gbps each, so the drive spindle speed is the first bottleneck.

How loud and hot does the 1U chassis get with dual 10-core CPUs and a single 550 W supply running 24/7?

Dual Xeon E5-2650 v3 processors and one 550 W redundant PSU push the 1U fans to higher speeds; expect noticeable airflow noise and warm exhaust.
