DELL PowerEdge R430 1U rack server E5-2603 v3 6C 1.6GHz 48GB DDR4 H730

1U Rack Server for Scale-Out Compute

This 1U Dell PowerEdge R430 ships new with a single Intel Xeon E5-2603 v3 six-core processor running at 1.6 GHz and 48 GB of DDR4 memory. It includes a PERC H730 RAID controller with 1 GB cache supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across eight 2.5-inch hot-plug drive bays. A single 550 W redundant power supply and iDRAC8 remote management are fitted.

Suits Single-Socket Density Workloads

The chassis supports a second processor and up to 384 GB total memory across twelve DIMM slots, so buyers who need that expansion headroom can add it later. Two PCIe 3.0 slots and four 1 GbE ports provide modest I/O for networking or storage adapters. Buyers who require more than two low-profile PCIe cards, more than eight drive bays, or a GPU beyond the Matrox G200 should look elsewhere.

Max Memory Limited to 48 GB as Shipped

The server arrives with 48 GB installed and the specification lists maximum memory capacity as 48 GB for this configuration, so the system cannot accept additional modules without a processor upgrade. Verify the memory ceiling matches the workload before purchase.
