DELL PowerEdge R630 10SFF Xeon E5-2603 v3 384GB DDR4

Dell PowerEdge R630 10-bay server

This 1U rack server is built for organisations that need dense compute in a standard cabinet. A single Xeon E5-2603 v3 processor running at 1.6 GHz with six cores delivers baseline performance for virtualisation hosts, application servers or database nodes. The chassis accepts up to ten 2.5-inch drives, so storage can scale with the workload. Buyers who need dual-socket throughput from day one should look elsewhere.

384 GB DDR4 ECC memory and PERC H730 controller

The system ships with 384 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory installed, leaving headroom to grow toward the 1.5 TB maximum across twenty-four DIMM slots. The PERC H730 SAS controller manages RAID across SATA drives, providing hardware acceleration for redundancy and read-ahead caching. Memory bandwidth and drive count become the limiting factors before the single CPU saturates, so memory-heavy workloads will benefit from adding the second processor.

iDRAC8 Enterprise and dual 495 W supplies

Remote management comes through iDRAC8 with an Enterprise licence, enabling full out-of-band control, virtual console and firmware updates without physical access. Two 495 W power supplies share the load and provide redundancy for continuous operation. The 10 SFF front bays and rear I/O keep cabling orderly in a 36 by 24 by 10 inch footprint weighing 40 pounds. Rail kits are available on request for quick rack integration.
