Dual Xeon E5-2695 v4 18-core server

The Dell PowerEdge T430 is a 5U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2695 v4 processors. Each CPU delivers 18 cores running at 2.1GHz with a 3.3GHz turbo frequency. The system ships with 64GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory across twelve slots. It targets organisations that need dense compute for virtualisation, database hosting or private-cloud infrastructure.

PERC H330 controller with sixteen 2.5″ bays

The integrated Dell PERC H330 12Gb/s SAS/SATA controller manages up to sixteen hot-swap 2.5-inch drive trays. This replaces direct-attached or single-controller setups that limit drive count and RAID flexibility. The jump is worthwhile when workloads demand large local storage pools, hardware RAID levels or mixed SAS and SATA media in a single chassis.

64GB DDR4 expandable to 384GB

The installed 64GB configuration uses four 16GB modules, leaving eight slots free for growth. Memory scales to 384GB, giving ample headroom for multi-tenant virtualisation or in-memory databases. Capacity runs out when workloads exceed the twelve-slot limit or require memory speeds beyond the DDR4-2400 specification.

Questions about this item

What rack height and rail clearance does the 5U T430 require?

The server occupies 5U of rack space; ready rails are not included so you must supply compatible sliding rails or a shelf that supports the chassis depth.

How do the dual Xeon E5-2695 v4 processors and 64GB DDR4-2400 ECC modules install, and what step is often missed?

Both LGA 2011 sockets are populated; the 12 DIMM slots use quad-channel DDR4-2400 ECC registered modules — populate all four channels per CPU in matching pairs to avoid reduced memory bandwidth.

When will the PERC H330 controller battery or the 750W platinum power supplies need replacement?

The H330 uses a replaceable RAID battery module that typically lasts three to five years; each hot-swap 750W platinum PSU can be swapped independently when its health LED indicates degradation.
