Dell PowerEdge R830 2U server

The Dell PowerEdge R830 is a 2U rack server built for compute-intensive workloads. Four Intel E5-4669v4 processors provide 22 cores each at 2.2 GHz with 55 MB cache. The system includes 64 GB of DDR4 memory arranged as four 16 GB PC4-2400 modules. An H730 RAID controller manages the eight 2.5-inch drive bays.

Suits virtualisation hosts needing dense core counts

This server suits virtualisation hosts that need dense core counts in a 2U form factor. The quad-socket layout and 64 GB of DDR4 support heavy consolidation. Buyers who require larger memory footprints or GPU-accelerated workloads should look at alternative platforms. The fixed eight-bay chassis also limits local storage expansion beyond the installed trays.

H730 RAID controller with eight 2.5-inch bays

The H730 RAID controller manages the eight 2.5-inch drive bays and determines which RAID levels and drive types are supported. iDRAC8 Enterprise provides out-of-band management for remote administration. Seven PCIe slots offer expansion for networking or storage adapters. A 1600 W redundant power supply is included.
