Dell PowerEdge T430 16-bay server

The Dell PowerEdge T430 is a rack-mount server fitted with two Intel Xeon E5-2699 v4 processors running at 2.2 GHz and 256 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. It targets organisations that need dense 2.5-inch storage capacity and dual-socket compute in a 2U form factor for virtualisation, database or file-serving workloads.

Capacity and headroom with 16 drive bays

Sixteen 2.5-inch bays connect to a PERC H730 SAS controller supporting SATA drives, giving ample room for large RAID arrays or mixed hot and cold data tiers. Memory can grow from the installed 256 GB to a maximum of 384 GB when additional DDR4 modules are added, while the dual 1100 W power supplies provide redundancy for fully populated configurations.

Upgrade path from smaller tower

Teams moving from a single-processor tower or a chassis with fewer than sixteen bays gain the extra cores, cache and drive density required for heavier consolidation. The jump is worthwhile when workloads exceed the memory ceiling or drive count of the current platform and the 22-core per socket design matches the licensing model in use.

Questions about this item

Will the 2.2GHz Xeon E5-2699v4 CPUs and PERC H730 controller work with my existing 2.5" SATA drives?

Yes, the PERC H730 SAS controller supports SATA drives in the 16 2.5-inch bays, so your current drives will be recognised and can be configured in RAID.

How can I confirm the 256GB DDR4 ECC memory and dual processors are operating correctly after installation?

Use the iDRAC8 Express remote management interface to view the system inventory and run the built-in diagnostics; it will report both CPUs and all 256GB of DDR4 ECC memory as healthy.

Does the server ship with drive caddies and rails, or must I order them separately?

The chassis includes 16 drive caddies for the 2.5-inch bays; a rail kit is available on request and is not included by default.
