DELL PowerEdge T430 5U Rack Server 2x Xeon E5-2650 v4 2.2GHz 12 Core 16GB DDR4 H330 8x 2.5" Trays 2x 750W

Dell PowerEdge T430 5U dual-processor server

This Dell PowerEdge T430 is a 5U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2650 v4 processors running at 2.2 GHz with a 2.9 GHz turbo frequency. Each CPU provides 12 cores for a total of 24 cores across the system. It ships with 16 GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory installed across 12 available slots. The Dell PERC H330 controller manages storage through eight 2.5-inch hot-swap drive trays supporting SAS and SATA drives.

Suited for virtualisation.

The dual-processor configuration and 384 GB maximum memory capacity make this server appropriate for VMware ESXi, Microsoft Hyper-V, Proxmox VE, Microsoft SQL Server and software-defined storage workloads. Integrated dual-port Gigabit Ethernet and iDRAC 8 Express remote management support routine administration. Redundant hot-swap 750 W platinum power supplies provide resilience. Buyers who require more than two processors, memory beyond 384 GB, or storage interfaces other than SAS and SATA should evaluate alternative platforms.

PERC H330 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA controller defines

The installed Dell PERC H330 controller delivers 12 Gb/s SAS and SATA connectivity to the eight front-accessible 2.5-inch drive trays. No drives are included, so the buyer must populate the bays with compatible SAS or SATA hard drives or SSDs. The controller does not support other storage protocols, so drive selection is limited to SAS and SATA media. This single specification determines whether the server matches the intended storage architecture.
