Enterprise 5U Server System

The Dell PowerEdge T430 is a 5U rack-mount server system designed for enterprise workloads. It arrives with dual Intel Xeon E5-2695 v4 processors running at 2.1 GHz with 3.3 GHz turbo, providing 18 cores per CPU. The system includes 16 GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory and a PERC HBA330 storage controller with eight 2.5-inch drive trays installed.

Virtualisation and Database Hosts

This configuration suits organisations deploying virtualisation platforms such as VMware ESXi, Hyper-V or Proxmox, as well as database and file-serving roles. The dual-socket design and 12 memory slots allow expansion to 384 GB of DDR4. Buyers who need drives pre-installed, a different storage controller, or a tower form factor without rack rails should evaluate alternative systems.

Dual 18-Core Xeon E5-2695 v4 CPUs

The decisive specification is the pair of installed Intel Xeon E5-2695 v4 processors, each delivering 18 cores at 2.1 GHz base frequency with 3.3 GHz turbo. This fixed CPU configuration determines the threading capacity and LGA 2011 platform limits for any memory or expansion upgrades.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 16 GB or the 384 GB memory option?

16 GB is installed across two 8 GB modules; the system can scale to 384 GB using all twelve DDR4 slots.

What does the 2.1 GHz base speed with 3.3 GHz turbo mean for actual workloads?

The two Xeon E5-2695 v4 processors run at 2.1 GHz and can boost to 3.3 GHz when thermal headroom allows.

What storage speeds does the HBA330 controller support on the 2.5-inch bays?

The PERC HBA330 provides 12 Gb/s SAS and SATA connectivity for up to eight hot-swap drive trays.
