Ready-to-run 1U server

The Dell PowerEdge R430 arrives with dual eight-core Xeon E5-2630v3 processors at 2.4 GHz, 32 GB of DDR4 memory and three 600 GB 15 K SAS drives on a Perc H730 RAID controller. It is built for IT teams that need a compact, hot-plug platform for virtualisation, database or web workloads without waiting for a custom build.

Check rack depth and PCIe needs

The chassis measures 26.7 inches deep, so verify that your cabinet provides enough clearance for cables and airflow. Only two PCIe 3.0 slots are available, so confirm that any additional network or storage cards will fit within that limit. The system includes a single 550 W redundant supply; a second module must be sourced separately if full redundancy is required.

Cooling and power in normal use

Dual processors and 15 K drives generate steady heat, so the 1U fans run at audible speeds under typical loads. Power draw will reflect the combined CPU, memory and drive activity, with the single 550 W unit delivering all output until a redundant module is added. The iDRAC8 remote-management card lets you monitor temperatures and fan curves without opening the rack.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and what must I buy separately?

The server ships with two E5-2630v3 processors, 32GB DDR4, three 600GB 15K SAS drives on an H730 controller, one 550W redundant power supply, DVD drive, power cable and rail kit. Operating system, extra memory, additional drives and iDRAC Enterprise licence are not included.

Should I choose the 32GB configuration or add more memory?

The board has 12 DIMM slots and supports up to 384GB total. The installed 32GB leaves nine slots free for 4GB, 8GB, 16GB or 32GB DDR4 modules up to 2400MT/s, actual speed limited by the E5-2630v3 capability.

What does the H730 12Gbps RAID controller mean for the three 600GB 15K drives?

The H730 provides 1GB cache and 12Gbps SAS lanes, enabling RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 across the three installed drives and up to five more 2.5" hot-plug bays for capacity or redundancy expansion.
