Dell PowerEdge T430 5U server

The Dell PowerEdge T430 is a 5U rack server designed for small-office and remote-office workloads. It ships with dual Intel Xeon E5-2650 v4 processors, 32 GB of DDR4 ECC memory, and eight 8 TB 3.5-inch SATA hard drives. A PERC H730 controller provides RAID flexibility for file, print, web and mail serving.

Suits single-server office roles.

This configuration suits businesses needing one tower or rack box for collaboration, messaging and file storage. It is not for scale-out clusters that require dense 1U or 2U nodes. Buyers who want GPU acceleration for AI or rendering should look elsewhere because the chassis and power design target general-purpose CPU tasks.

Eight 8 TB 3.5-inch SATA drives on H730 RAID

The eight-bay 3.5-inch backplane holds eight 8 TB 7.2K SATA drives connected to a PERC H730 1 GB controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. This storage capacity and RAID breadth decide whether the system meets your data-retention and throughput needs.

Questions about this item

How much power do the two 750 Watt Platinum supplies draw when the server runs continuously?

Each supply is rated at 750 watts with Platinum efficiency, so actual draw depends on load but will not exceed that rating.

What rack rails or mounting hardware must I already have to install this 5U tower in a standard rack?

The unit is a 5U rack-mountable tower; you need compatible 5U rails or a shelf and front bezel is included.

Will the PERC H730 controller recognise older 6 Gb/s SAS drives I want to reuse alongside the 8 TB SATA disks?

The H730 supports 12 Gb/s SAS and 6 Gb/s SATA, so legacy 6 Gb/s SAS drives are compatible in the same backplane.
