Dual Xeon E5-2630v3 1U server

The Dell PowerEdge R430 is a 1U rack-mount server with two eight-core Xeon E5-2630v3 processors running at 2.4 GHz. It ships with 16 GB of DDR4 memory across twelve DIMM slots and three 600 GB 15K SAS drives managed by a PERC H730 RAID controller. A single 550 W redundant power supply and four 1 GbE ports complete the baseline configuration.

Suits dense virtualisation; not for GPU workloads

This server suits teams needing high thread counts in a shallow rack footprint, supporting up to 384 GB of DDR4 for memory-heavy virtualisation or database instances. The two PCIe 3.0 slots are low-profile, so builders who need full-height accelerator cards or more than eight 2.5-inch drive bays should look at a larger chassis.

PERC H730 RAID controller with 1 GB cache

The installed PERC H730 provides 12 Gbps SAS connectivity and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 with 1 GB of dedicated cache. This controller decides whether the three 15K drives can deliver the IOPS and redundancy profile your workload requires.

Questions about this item

Does the 1U chassis include mounting rails for a standard rack?

A rail kit is included with the server, allowing the 1U chassis to be secured in a standard rack.

Can the H730 controller manage the three 600GB 15K SAS drives together with SATA drives in the remaining bays?

The H730 supports both SAS and SATA drives, so the installed 600GB 15K SAS drives can share the backplane with SATA drives in the other five 2.5-inch hot-plug bays.

How can I verify the dual Xeon E5-2630v3 processors and 16GB DDR4 are recognised after first power-on?

During POST the system will display two E5-2630v3 CPUs and 16GB of DDR4 memory; iDRAC8 also reports the same inventory in its hardware view.
