Dell PowerEdge R530 2U rack server

This 2U Dell PowerEdge R530 rack server arrives new with a single Intel Xeon E5-2650 V3 ten-core processor at 2.3GHz and 48GB of DDR4 memory across twelve DIMM slots. It ships with two 2TB 7.2K SAS drives on a PERC H730 RAID controller supporting levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Dual 750W redundant power supplies and iDRAC8 remote management are included.

Twelve DDR4 DIMM slots with 48GB installed

The system populates 48GB across the twelve DDR4 slots, reaching the stated maximum capacity for this configuration. Each processor supports six slots at speeds up to 2400MT/s depending on the CPU capability. Buyers who need more than 48GB of memory cannot expand this unit without replacing modules.

Hot-plug drive bays and rack rails included

Eight 3.5-inch hot-plug bays allow drive changes without downtime, and the supplied rail kit fits standard racks. The PERC H730 controller manages RAID entirely in hardware, so no software array setup is required. The server ships without an operating system, so the installer must provide one before the array becomes usable.

Questions about this item

How does the 10-core 2.3 GHz Xeon perform inside this 2U chassis?

The installed E5-2650 V3 delivers ten cores at 2.3 GHz with twenty threads via hyper-threading, giving strong multi-threaded throughput for virtualization or database workloads within the 2U form factor.

What does the 12 Gbps H730 controller cap in practice?

The Perc H730 runs at 12 Gbps SAS and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60, so the controller itself does not limit the 6 Gbps SAS drives or any faster SAS SSDs you add later.

What physical space and rails are needed to mount the R530?

The server is a 2U rack unit measuring 25.4 inches deep, 17.1 inches wide and 3.4 inches high, weighing 62 lbs, and the included rail kit fits standard square-hole or threaded 4-post racks.
