Server purpose & audience

The Dell PowerEdge T430 is a 5U rack server built for small-office and remote-office workloads such as file, print, mail and web serving. Dual Xeon E5-2650 v4 processors deliver 24 total cores at 2.2 GHz with a 2.9 GHz turbo frequency. 384 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory fills the maximum supported capacity. Eight 4 TB 7.2K SATA drives sit behind a PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache and battery backup.

Fit & limits

This configuration suits teams needing dense internal storage and redundant power in a single chassis. Two 750 W platinum supplies and hot-swap bays support continuous operation. Buyers who need more than eight 3.5-inch drive bays or who require memory beyond 384 GB cannot expand this unit further. The LGA 2011-3 platform also prevents use of newer processor families.

Deciding specification

The installed 384 GB DDR4 reaches the system's maximum memory capacity, so no further RAM upgrades are possible. If your application demands additional memory headroom, a different platform must be selected.

Questions about this item

How much power do the dual 750 watt PSUs draw when the server runs continuously?

Each supply is rated at 750 watts platinum efficiency; actual draw depends on workload but the redundant pair shares the load for lower per-unit stress.

Which rails or rack hardware must I supply to mount this 5U tower in a standard cabinet?

The chassis is a 5U rack-mount tower; you will need compatible sliding rails or a shelf rated for the unit depth and weight.

Will the PERC H730 controller recognise older 3 Gb/s SATA drives I might add later?

The H730 supports SAS and SATA at 12 Gb/s and 6 Gb/s; it will negotiate down to 3 Gb/s for legacy drives.
