Dell PowerEdge R530 2U rack server

This 2U rack server ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2650 v3 ten-core processor running at 2.3 GHz and 96 GB of DDR4 memory across twelve DIMM slots. Dual 750 W redundant power supplies and an H730 RAID controller with 1 GB cache support RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across eight 3.5-inch hot-plug bays.

Suits virtualisation hosts

Organisations running memory-intensive virtual machines or databases benefit from the installed 96 GB DDR4 and the 12 Gbps RAID engine. Buyers who need a second processor, additional drive bays beyond the eight provided or GPU-accelerated compute should evaluate larger chassis options.

Eight 3.5-inch hot-plug bays with H730 RAID

The chassis accepts up to eight SAS or SATA drives managed by the Perc H730 controller, delivering a maximum raw capacity of 80 TB. This drive-count and controller combination determines whether the server fits your storage density and redundancy requirements.

Questions about this item

What is the maximum RAM capacity the R530 can address with its Xeon E5-2650 v3 processor?

The installed Xeon E5-2650 v3 supports up to 384GB of DDR4 across 12 DIMM slots running at speeds up to 2400MT/s.

How much heat and power draw should I expect from the dual 750W redundant supplies under continuous load?

Dual 750W hot-swap supplies provide N+1 redundancy; actual draw depends on drive count and PCIe cards but the chassis is rated for sustained 2U rack airflow.

Which drive interfaces and controller features are ready to use without extra hardware?

Eight 3.5-inch hot-plug bays connect to the integrated Perc H730 12Gbps RAID controller supporting SAS and SATA drives with RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60.
