Dell PowerEdge R430 1U rack server 2x E5-2603v3 1.6GHz 48GB DDR4 3x 600GB 15K SAS H730

PowerEdge R430 1U dual Xeon server

This 1U rack system ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2603v3 six-core processors running at 1.6GHz and 48GB of DDR4 memory installed across twelve DIMM slots. The Dell Perc H730 RAID controller manages three 600GB 15K SAS drives in hot-plug 2.5-inch bays, with support for RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. A single 550W redundant power supply and iDRAC8 remote management are included.

Suited for dense compute

The eight 2.5-inch hot-plug bays and H730 controller suit workloads that rely on 15K SAS spindles for consistent IOPS. Memory is capped at 48GB by the supplied configuration, and only two PCIe 3.0 slots are available for add-in cards. Buyers who need more than 48GB of RAM, more than two expansion slots or SATA SSD boot drives should evaluate other platforms.

Memory fixed at 48GB DDR4 across twelve slots

The installed 48GB matches the listed maximum capacity for this configuration, using DDR4 modules up to 2400MT/s dependent on the processor capability. No additional memory can be added without replacing existing DIMMs. This limit determines whether the server fits workloads that require larger in-memory datasets.
