Dual Xeon E5-2650 v4 5U Server

The Dell PowerEdge T430 is a 5U tower server with an optional rack conversion kit. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2650 v4 processors running at 2.2 GHz with a 2.9 GHz turbo frequency. Each CPU provides 12 cores for a total of 24 cores. The system includes 64 GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory across four modules.

Virtualisation hosts and storage-heavy workloads

This configuration suits organisations running VMware ESXi, Microsoft Hyper-V or Proxmox VE virtualisation, as well as database hosting and backup targets. The PERC HBA330 controller and sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap bays support SAS and SATA drives. Buyers who need more than two processors or memory beyond 384 GB should evaluate alternative platforms.

PERC HBA330 storage controller

The installed Dell PERC HBA330 provides 12 Gb/s SAS and SATA connectivity without RAID processing overhead. It presents the four 1.92 TB SATA solid-state drives directly to the operating system. This controller choice determines whether the server fits a software-defined storage stack or requires a separate RAID card.

Questions about this item

Does the 5U tower server fit in a standard rack without the optional conversion kit?

The 5U tower chassis requires the optional rack conversion kit to mount in a standard rack; without it the server stays in tower orientation.

Which step is often missed when installing the HBA330 controller into the PCIe slot?

The HBA330 must be fully seated and its internal mini-SAS cables connected to the backplane before powering on, otherwise the 16 drive bays will not be detected.

When will the 750 Watt platinum power supplies need replacement?

The redundant 750 W platinum units are hot-swappable; replace a unit only when its front-panel LED shows a fault or the iDRAC 8 Express logs a power-supply degradation alert.
