5U tower server for small offices

The Dell PowerEdge T430 is a 5U tower server built for small-office and remote-office workloads such as file and print serving, mail, messaging and web hosting. It ships new with two Intel Xeon E5-2620 v4 processors, each running at 2.1 GHz with eight cores and a 3.0 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 256 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz registered ECC memory across eight 32 GB modules.

Sustained load with dual 750 W supplies

Dual hot-swap 750 W platinum power supplies provide redundancy for continuous operation under sustained load. The PERC H730 storage controller with 1 GB cache and battery backup supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through modes across eight 3.5-inch SAS/SATA drive trays. Integrated Broadcom 5720 dual-port 1 GbE networking and iDRAC 8 Express remote management maintain availability during extended duty cycles.

Check tray count and memory ceiling

Verify that eight 3.5-inch drive trays meet your storage density needs before ordering, as no drives are installed. The platform offers twelve DDR4 slots with a 384 GB maximum, so confirm the 256 GB configuration leaves enough headroom for future expansion. Ensure your rack or floor space accommodates the 5U form factor and that plastic feet are not required for your installation.

Questions about this item

How much power and heat do the two 750 watt platinum supplies generate under continuous load?

Two 750 watt platinum supplies provide redundant hot-swap power; platinum efficiency means less waste heat than lower-rated units, though exact draw depends on the workload you run.

Which drives and cabling must I supply to populate the eight 3.5 inch trays?

The trays accept 3.5 inch SATA or SAS drives; no drives are installed, so you must provide the drives and any SAS or SATA cables the controller requires.

Will the PERC H730 controller recognise SAS drives from earlier Dell servers?

The PERC H730 supports SAS and SATA with RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through, so legacy SAS drives that meet those standards will be recognised.
