Dual-socket Xeon server for virtualisation density

The PowerEdge T430 fits two E5-2640 v3 processors running at 2.6GHz, giving sixteen cores and forty threads in a 16-bay 2.5-inch chassis. It targets IT teams that need consolidated virtual machines or database instances without a full data-centre footprint.

Sustained compute with 128GB DDR4 ECC

All 128GB of registered DDR4 memory is populated, so the CPUs keep full bandwidth during long compilation runs or heavy hypervisor workloads. The PERC H730 controller manages up to sixteen SAS drives behind a hardware RAID engine that maintains throughput when queues fill.

Maximum memory ceiling of 384GB

The board supports 384GB across twenty-four DIMM slots, leaving headroom for future growth if workloads expand beyond the current 128GB. Buyers who need that capacity today must add modules themselves.

Questions about this item

How much heat and power should I expect from the dual 2.6GHz Xeon E5-2640 v3 CPUs running 24/7?

The server ships with two 1100W redundant power supplies; actual draw varies with workload, and the iDRAC8 remote management lets you monitor real-time power and thermal readings.

Which drives and caddies do I need to populate the 16 x 2.5" SAS bays?

The chassis accepts 2.5-inch SAS drives; the PERC H730 RAID controller manages them, and no drives or caddies are included with this configuration.

Will my existing DDR4 ECC RDIMMs work alongside the 128GB already installed?

The system uses DDR4 ECC Registered memory up to 384GB total; matching speed and rank is recommended when adding modules to the remaining slots.
