PowerEdge R430 1U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R430 is a 1U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2650v3 ten-core processors running at 2.3 GHz. It ships with 16 GB of DDR4 memory across twelve DIMM slots and three 600 GB 15 K SAS drives managed by a PERC H730 RAID controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. A single 550 W redundant power supply and four 1 GbE ports complete the baseline configuration.

Suits dense compute and virtualisation hosts

This server suits organisations that need dual-socket performance in a single rack unit with hardware RAID and hot-plug 2.5-inch drive bays. The twelve DIMM slots allow memory expansion up to 384 GB for memory-intensive workloads. Buyers who require more than eight drive bays or additional PCIe 3.0 slots beyond the two provided should evaluate larger chassis options.

PERC H730 RAID controller with 1 GB cache

The installed PERC H730 controller delivers 12 Gbps SAS connectivity and 1 GB of cache, enabling the full range of RAID levels including 50 and 60. This specification determines whether the array performance and data-protection features match the application requirements.

Questions about this item

How much memory can I add beyond the 16GB that is already installed?

The board has 12 DIMM slots and supports up to 384GB of DDR4, so you can populate the remaining slots with 4GB, 8GB, 16GB or 32GB modules up to that limit.

What does the 2.3GHz clock on the two 10-core Xeon E5-2650v3 processors deliver in practice?

With both CPUs installed you get 20 physical cores and 40 threads running at 2.3GHz, giving strong multi-threaded throughput for virtualisation or database workloads.

What drive speeds does the H730 12Gbps RAID controller actually allow with the installed 6Gbps SAS drives?

The controller negotiates at each drive's native 6Gbps rate, so the 15K SAS disks run at their full speed while the 12Gbps headroom is reserved for faster drives you may add later.
