Dell PowerEdge R630 1U rack server E5-2637 V3 3.5GHz 16GB 2x 400GB SSD H330

1U rack server for dense compute

The Dell PowerEdge R630 fits a single Intel Xeon E5-2637 V3 quad-core processor at 3.5 GHz with 16 GB of DDR4 memory into a 1U form factor. Two 400 GB SAS SSDs and a Perc H330 RAID controller provide fast local storage. Redundant 750 W hot-swap power supplies keep the platform running during a module failure. The system targets workloads that need high clock speed in a shallow rack footprint.

Sustained load behaviour

Under continuous demand the four physical cores and eight logical threads maintain their 3.5 GHz base frequency without turbo uplift. The H330 controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60 so sustained write throughput scales with the chosen redundancy level. Memory runs at up to 2400 MT/s across 24 DIMM slots, though the installed 16 GB occupies only a fraction of the 1536 GB maximum. PCIe 3.0 slots remain available for additional accelerator cards.

Thermals noise and power

Dual 750 W redundant supplies share the load, reducing per-unit stress and fan speed during typical operation. The 1U chassis draws cool air from the front and exhausts it at the rear, a pattern suited to standard cold-aisle layouts. Acoustic output stays within data-centre norms because the server is not designed for office placement. Power draw varies with processor utilisation and the number of populated drive bays.
