Dell PowerEdge R430 1U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R430 is a 1U rackmount server system built for dense compute environments. It arrives with a single Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 eight-core processor running at 2.4 GHz and 24 GB of DDR4 memory installed across 12 DIMM slots. Storage is handled by a PERC H730 RAID controller with 1 GB cache driving three 600 GB 15K SAS drives in hot-plug bays.

Suits single-socket deployments needing dense 1U

This configuration fits workloads that run on a single Xeon E5-2630 v3 and benefit from 15K SAS spindle speed. The 24 GB DDR4 limit and single CPU socket mean it does not suit buyers who need dual-processor capacity from day one, who require more than 24 GB of installed memory, or who want SSD storage out of the box. The 550 W redundant power supply supports the current build only.

PERC H730 RAID controller with 1 GB cache

The H730 controller provides RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across the three 600 GB SAS drives and any additional 2.5-inch SAS or SATA drives added to the eight hot-plug bays. Its 12 Gbps SAS interface and 1 GB cache determine the array performance and data protection level. Buyers should verify the controller meets their RAID level and throughput requirements before purchase.

Questions about this item

Do I need a second Xeon E5-2630 v3 processor to fill all 12 DIMM slots?

The 12 DIMM slots are split six per processor, so a second CPU is required to use the six slots assigned to the second socket.

Will the H730 RAID controller support my existing 6 Gbps SAS drives alongside the installed 15K 600 GB drives?

Yes, the H730 handles 12 Gbps SAS and is backward compatible with 6 Gbps SAS drives, so older drives can be mixed in the same array.

How can I verify the H730 controller sees all three 600 GB drives at 15K RPM after installation?

During POST press the indicated key to enter the H730 configuration utility, where each physical drive will be listed with its capacity and rotational speed.
