DELL PowerEdge R430 1U Rack Server E5-2630v3 2.4GHz 48GB DDR4 H730

Dell PowerEdge R430 1U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R430 is a 1U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2630v3 eight-core processor running at 2.4 GHz with 48 GB of DDR4 memory installed across twelve DIMM slots. It includes a Dell PERC H730 1 GB 12 Gbps RAID controller supporting RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60, plus a DVD-ROM drive and a single 550 W redundant hot-swap power supply.

Ideal for dense virtualization hosts

This configuration suits teams needing up to eight 2.5-inch hot-plug SAS or SATA drive bays, four 1 GbE ports, two PCIe 3.0 slots and iDRAC8 remote management in a shallow 1U form factor. Buyers who need more than two PCIe expansion slots, more than 48 GB of memory without adding a second processor, or GPU-accelerated compute should consider other platforms.

Maximum installed memory is 48 GB with one processor

The system ships with 48 GB of DDR4 across twelve slots and supports up to 384 GB total only when a second processor is added. With a single CPU the installed 48 GB represents the practical ceiling, so memory capacity is the specification that decides whether this unit fits the workload.
