Purpose-built 1U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R630 is a 1U rack server designed for dense compute environments. It arrives with a single Intel Xeon E5-2637 v3 quad-core processor running at 3.5 GHz and 24 GB of DDR4 memory. Two 600 GB 15 K SAS drives and a PERC H730 RAID controller provide high-speed local storage. Dual 750 W redundant power supplies support continuous operation.

Ideal for virtualisation hosts.

This configuration suits virtualisation hosts, database nodes or high-frequency trading workloads that benefit from the 3.5 GHz clock speed and 15 K spindle drives. The single-socket layout leaves the second CPU socket open for future expansion. Buyers who need more than two processors or who require a larger drive count than the eight 2.5-inch bays provide should evaluate alternative platforms.

Single-socket Xeon with 24 GB DDR4 ceiling

The installed processor is a single Xeon E5-2637 v3 with four cores and hyper-threading. Memory is populated to 24 GB across the 24 DIMM slots, matching the listed maximum capacity for this configuration. Adding a second processor would unlock the full 1,536 GB system limit and the remaining memory channels.

Questions about this item

Does the 12Gbps SAS controller limit the 15K drives to a lower practical throughput?

The PERC H730 controller and the 600GB 15K drives both operate at 12Gbps SAS, so the interface does not cap the drives below their native link speed.

What physical space and mounting hardware does this 1U server require in a rack?

The chassis measures 26.8 inches long, 17.44 inches wide and 3.4 inches high; it weighs 58 lbs and mounts in a standard 1U rack space using sliding rails.

How is the PERC H730 RAID controller installed, and what step is often missed?

The H730 occupies the dedicated PERC slot inside the chassis; the step often missed is connecting the 2GB flash-backed cache module to the controller before closing the cover.
