Dell PowerEdge R430 1U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R430 is a 1U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 eight-core processor running at 2.4 GHz. It ships with 24 GB of DDR4 memory and three 1.2 TB SAS drives connected to a PERC H330 RAID controller. A 550 W redundant power supply and four 1 GbE ports complete the platform.

Suits buyers needing a compact dual-socket chassis

This server suits buyers who want a short-depth 1U chassis that accepts a second Xeon processor and up to eight 2.5-inch hot-plug drives. The installed memory reaches the 24 GB ceiling of the current configuration, so users who need more capacity must add a second CPU and additional DIMMs. Buyers who require more than 24 GB of memory or more than three drives in the initial shipment should look at other configurations.

PERC H330 RAID controller with SAS drives

The storage subsystem centres on a Dell PERC H330 controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60 across the three installed 1.2 TB 7.2K SAS drives. The controller provides 12 Gbps SAS connectivity to the backplane, which holds up to eight drives in total. This specification determines whether the array layout and drive count meet the workload requirements.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 24 GB DDR4 configuration or add a second processor to reach 384 GB?

The installed 24 GB DDR4 uses one E5-2630 v3 2.4 GHz 8-core CPU; adding a second processor unlocks the remaining six DIMM slots and raises the maximum to 384 GB.

What does the 2.4 GHz eight-core Xeon deliver inside this 1U chassis?

The single E5-2630 v3 runs at 2.4 GHz with eight cores and sixteen threads, cooled by the 1U airflow design and powered by the 550 W redundant supply.

How does the H330 12 Gbps SAS controller limit the three 1.2 TB 7.2K drives?

The H330 supports 12 Gbps SAS, but the fitted 1.2 TB drives operate at 6 Gbps, so the array runs at the drive speed ceiling.
