Dual Xeon E5-2660 v4 Server Platform

This Dell PowerEdge T430 arrives as a 5U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2660 v4 processors. Each CPU runs at 2.0 GHz with a 3.2 GHz turbo frequency and provides 14 cores. The system includes 16 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC HBA330 storage controller. Four 960 GB SATA SSDs are installed in the 2.5-inch drive bays.

Virtualization Hosts and Database Nodes

The dual 14-core configuration suits virtualization clusters, database servers and business-critical applications that benefit from high thread counts. The 16 GB memory capacity and single HBA330 controller limit this unit for environments that need larger memory footprints or hardware RAID protection. Buyers who need more memory channels, additional controller cache or a different drive interface should evaluate other platforms.

16 GB DDR4 ECC Registered Memory Baseline

The installed 16 GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory occupies two of twelve slots and supports expansion up to 384 GB. This starting capacity determines whether the server can immediately run the intended workload or requires additional modules before deployment.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 16 GB DDR4-2400 configuration or add more modules to reach 384 GB?

The server ships with 16 GB across two 8 GB DDR4-2400 ECC Registered DIMMs; twelve slots are available so you can expand up to 384 GB as workloads grow.

What does the 2.0 GHz base and 3.2 GHz turbo mean for dual 14-core Xeon E5-2660 v4 CPUs?

Two 14-core processors run at 2.0 GHz base and can boost to 3.2 GHz, giving strong multi-threaded throughput for virtualization and database tasks.

How does the HBA330 controller with SATA 6 Gb/s SSDs affect storage speed?

The PERC HBA330 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA controller connects four 960 GB SATA 6 Gb/s SSDs, so drive throughput is capped at the SATA 6 Gb/s link speed.
