DELL PowerEdge R630 1U rack server E5-2620 V3 2.4GHz 32GB DDR4 2x 300GB 15K SAS H730

1U Rack Server with Xeon E5-2620 V3

The Dell PowerEdge R630 is a 1U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2620 V3 six-core processor running at 2.4GHz. It ships with 32GB of DDR4 memory and two 300GB 15K SAS drives managed by a Perc H730 RAID controller. Dual 750W redundant power supplies provide resiliency for continuous operation in dense data-centre environments.

32GB DDR4 and 24 DIMM Slots

Installed memory is 32GB across 24 DIMM slots, twelve per processor socket. The chipset supports modules up to 128GB each for a theoretical maximum of 1536GB, though the second processor socket is empty in this configuration. Memory speed reaches 2400MT/s depending on the installed CPU. The current 32GB fits modest virtualisation or database workloads, while the headroom allows significant expansion when a second Xeon is added.

SAS Storage and PCIe 3.0 Expansion

The H730 controller handles SAS and SATA drives with RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Eight 2.5-inch hot-plug bays accept up to 14TB per drive, but only two 300GB SAS units are fitted. Networking defaults to a four-port 1GbE daughter card with optional 10GbE upgrades. Three PCIe 3.0 slots plus a dedicated PERC slot provide I/O expansion, while iDRAC8 with Lifecycle Controller handles remote management.
