Dual-socket rack server with high memory capacity

The Dell PowerEdge R630 fits a 1U rack space and holds two Xeon E5-2603 v3 processors running at 1.6GHz. With 768GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory installed, it targets virtualization hosts, database nodes or compute clusters that need large memory footprints. The eight 2.5-inch drive bays and PERC H730 SAS controller provide flexible local storage options. No drives are included, so buyers add the capacity and redundancy level their workload requires.

Sustained multi-threaded workloads across both

Under continuous load the dual six-core CPUs share 15MB of cache per socket and feed from the 768GB DDR4 pool through the integrated memory controllers. The PERC H730 manages SAS traffic with hardware RAID offload, keeping I/O latency predictable during long database scans or VM migrations. Dual 495W power supplies deliver redundancy for 24/7 operation, while iDRAC8 Enterprise enables remote power cycling, console access and firmware updates without physical presence.

Verify rack depth, power cords

The chassis measures 36 inches deep, so confirm your cabinet accommodates that length with cable management. Two 495W supplies require matching PDU outlets and appropriate voltage for your region. Eight 2.5-inch bays need compatible drive caddies for any SAS HDDs or SSDs you plan to install. Network uplinks use the installed Intel 10GbE and 1GbE ports; check switch compatibility and cabling type for those interfaces.

Questions about this item

How much heat and power do the dual 1.6GHz Xeon E5-2603 v3 CPUs and 768GB DDR4 produce under sustained load?

Two 6-core 1.6GHz Xeon E5-2603 v3 processors and 768GB DDR4 draw power through dual 495W supplies; the 1U chassis uses high-speed fans that increase airflow as inlet temperature rises, keeping CPU thermals within Intel limits during continuous operation.

Which drive trays, cables and backplane do I need to populate the 8-bay 2.5-inch SAS chassis?

The 8SFF front bay accepts 2.5-inch SAS drives or SSDs; the PERC H730 controller connects to the integrated backplane, so standard Dell 2.5-inch hot-plug trays and SAS cables are the only parts required to add storage.

Will the PERC H730 RAID controller and iDRAC8 Enterprise work with my existing 12Gbps SAS arrays and older 6Gbps shelves?

The PERC H730 supports 12Gbps SAS and negotiates down to 6Gbps for legacy shelves, while iDRAC8 Enterprise provides the same remote console, virtual media and alerting used on earlier 12th-generation PowerEdge servers.
