Dense 1U compute node

The Dell PowerEdge R630 packs two Xeon E5-2698 v3 processors and 512 GB of DDR4 ECC memory into a 1U rack chassis with ten 2.5-inch drive bays. It targets virtualisation clusters, database workloads and high-density cloud deployments that need maximum core count and memory capacity per rack unit. Buyers seeking GPU-accelerated rendering or workstation-class single-thread speed should look elsewhere.

PERC H730 with ten hot-swap bays

A PERC H730 SAS RAID controller manages up to ten front-accessible SATA or SAS drives, enabling hot-swap replacement without downtime. Redundant 495 W power supplies and iDRAC8 Enterprise remote management allow firmware updates, power cycling and console access from anywhere. The integrated Intel I350 and X540 network adapters deliver two 10 GbE and two 1 GbE ports on the rear panel.

Verify rack depth and drive caddies

The chassis measures 36 inches deep, so confirm your rack enclosure provides sufficient clearance for cable routing and airflow. Drive caddies for the 2.5-inch bays are not included and must be sourced separately if you populate storage. Ensure your operating system and hypervisor support the installed Xeon v3 microarchitecture and DDR4 registered DIMMs before deployment.

Questions about this item

What drive interface does the PERC H730 controller support for the 10 SFF bays?

The PERC H730 SAS controller connects to the ten 2.5-inch bays using SATA drives, which the controller manages for RAID arrays.

What rack depth does the 1U chassis require for the sliding rails?

The server measures 36 inches deep, so the rack must provide at least that much clear depth for the rail kit to extend fully.

How are the two Xeon E5-2698 v3 processors and 512 GB DDR4 installed, and what step is often missed?

Both CPUs and all memory come factory-installed; the step people miss is applying the latest BIOS and firmware updates before first boot.
