Dell PowerEdge R530 2U rack server

This 2U rack server delivers a single Intel Xeon E5-2603 V3 six-core processor at 1.6GHz with 24GB of DDR4 memory across twelve DIMM slots. It ships with three 4TB 7.2K SAS drives managed by a Perc H730 RAID controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Dual 750W redundant power supplies and a DVD ROM complete the base configuration.

Suits workloads needing hot-plug SAS storage

The eight 3.5-inch hot-plug bays accept SAS or SATA drives, while five PCIe slots (three 3.0 and two 2.0) provide room for additional controllers or networking cards. iDRAC8 Express offers out-of-band management. Buyers needing more than 24GB of installed memory, a second processor, or higher drive counts than the three included 4TB units should consider other configurations.

Installed memory is fixed at 24GB DDR4

Although the platform supports up to 384GB across twelve slots, this unit arrives with 24GB already populated and no additional modules included. The single E5-2603 V3 CPU limits memory channels to one processor until a second CPU is added. Verify that 24GB meets the application requirement before purchase.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the single E5-2603 V3 or add a second processor?

The server ships with one six-core 1.6 GHz Xeon E5-2603 V3 and supports up to two processors; adding a second doubles core count and unlocks the remaining six DIMM slots.

What does 24 GB of DDR4 give me in this 12-slot system?

The installed 24 GB uses half the 12 DIMM slots, leaving room to expand up to 384 GB with 4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB or 32 GB DDR4 modules running at speeds the CPU allows.

How does the H730 12 Gbps SAS controller limit the three 4 TB drives?

The Perc H730 handles 12 Gbps SAS, but the supplied 7.2 K drives run at 6 Gbps, so throughput is capped at the drive speed while RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 remains fully supported.
