1U rack server for small-scale workloads

The Dell PowerEdge R430 is a 1U rack-mount server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2630v3 eight-core processor running at 2.4 GHz. It ships with 8 GB of DDR4 memory and three 300 GB 15K SAS drives managed by a PERC H330 RAID controller supporting levels 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60. A 550 W redundant power supply and four 1 GbE ports complete the baseline configuration.

Best fit for light virtualisation and file serving

This server suits teams that need a compact, hot-plug 2.5-inch drive platform for light virtualisation, file sharing or departmental applications. The eight drive bays and 12 DIMM slots provide headroom for storage and memory growth. It is not for buyers who require solid-state drives installed from the factory, a second processor populated, or a pre-loaded operating system.

PERC H330 RAID controller with 12 Gbps SAS

The storage subsystem centres on the Dell PERC H330 controller delivering 12 Gbps SAS connectivity and hardware RAID across the supported levels. This single specification determines whether the server can meet the performance and redundancy needs of the target workload before any drive or memory upgrades are applied.

Questions about this item

What type of memory modules will I need when the 8 GB DDR4 installed today needs expanding?

The system accepts DDR4 RDIMMs in 4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB or 32 GB capacities up to 2400 MT/s across 12 slots.

Which component reaches its ceiling first when the server runs at full load for hours?

The single E5-2630 v3 processor and the 8 GB DDR4 memory limit compute and capacity before the H330 controller or drive bays saturate.

How loud and hot does the 1 U chassis get with the 550 W redundant supply running continuously?

Dual redundant fans and the 550 W supply keep the 1U rack unit within Dell thermal specs; expect typical data-centre noise levels.
