Dell PowerEdge R430 1U server

The Dell PowerEdge R430 is a 1U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2650v3 ten-core processor running at 2.3GHz. It ships with 8GB of DDR4 memory and three 1.2TB 7.2K SAS drives managed by a PERC H730 RAID controller. A single 550W redundant power supply and DVD ROM complete the baseline configuration.

Suitable for dense virtualisation hosts

This configuration suits teams consolidating lighter workloads or running virtualised environments that benefit from ten cores and hardware RAID across a small drive set. The 1U form factor fits tight rack rows, and the H730 controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Buyers who need more than 8GB of memory from day one or require more than two PCIe 3.0 slots for additional controllers should consider other chassis.

Single E5-2650v3 with 8GB DDR4

The server arrives with one Xeon E5-2650v3 and 8GB of DDR4 installed across twelve DIMM slots, six per processor. Memory speed operates up to 2400MT/s depending on the processor capability. The board supports a second processor and a maximum of 384GB when fully populated, but the shipping configuration provides only the single CPU and 8GB.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the single E5-2650v3 or add a second processor for 20 virtual cores?

The server supports up to two Xeon E5-2650v3 CPUs. One installed processor gives 10 cores and 20 virtual cores with hyperthreading; adding a second doubles that to 20 physical cores and 40 virtual cores for heavier workloads.

What does the 2.3 GHz clock speed mean for actual throughput on the E5-2650v3?

The 2.3 GHz base frequency runs across all 10 cores. Under load the CPU can turbo higher, but sustained throughput depends on the workload and cooling in the 1U chassis.

The H730 controller is 12 Gbps SAS — what does that cap in practice?

The Perc H730 supports 12 Gbps SAS lanes, but the installed 1.2 TB drives are 6 Gbps 7.2K SAS, so the array speed is limited to 6 Gbps per drive.
