Dell PowerEdge T430 5U server

The Dell PowerEdge T430 is a 5U rack server built for office workloads such as file and print serving, mail, messaging and web serving. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2620 v4 8-core processors running at 2.1 GHz with a 3.0 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 16 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory across twelve DIMM slots. A Dell PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache manages the eight installed 8 TB 7.2K SATA drives.

Suited for small-office

This configuration suits small offices and remote sites that need a single server for collaboration, productivity and basic infrastructure services. The dual power supplies and hot-swap drive bays support continuous operation during hardware maintenance. Buyers who need higher compute density, larger memory footprints or all-flash storage should evaluate alternative platforms.

Storage controller decides RAID flexibility

The PERC H730 1 GB controller provides RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode, and its battery-backed cache protects data during power loss. This controller determines which drive types and RAID levels are available, so confirm that its SAS and SATA support matches your storage plan before purchase.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the PERC H730 controller and all eight 8TB drives are recognised after first boot?

Open the controller BIOS during POST or log into iDRAC8 Express; both will show the H730 with 1GB cache and list each 7.2K SATA drive in the virtual-disk view.

Which components are included and which must be sourced separately?

The unit ships with two Xeon E5-2620 v4 CPUs, 16GB DDR4 ECC in two slots, eight 8TB 3.5" SATA drives, H730 controller with battery, dual 750W PSUs, 5720 dual 1GbE LOM, iDRAC8 Express and front bezel; rails and plastic feet are not included.

Should I choose the 16GB DDR4 configuration or expand toward the 384GB maximum for virtualisation workloads?

Start with the installed 16GB (2×8GB at 2133MHz) and add registered ECC DDR4 modules to the ten free slots as VM density grows; the board supports up to 384GB total.
