Dual Xeon 5U tower server

The Dell PowerEdge T430 is a 5U tower server that can be converted for rack mounting. It ships 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. The platform includes 32 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory installed across four slots.

Suited for virtualisation and storage workloads

This configuration supports VMware ESXi, Hyper-V and Proxmox virtualisation as well as database hosting and file services. The PERC H330 controller manages the four included 960 GB SATA SSDs and can address additional drives in the 16 available 2.5-inch hot-swap bays. Redundant 750 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC 8 Express remote management are fitted as standard. Organisations that require more than two processor sockets or memory beyond the 384 GB maximum should evaluate alternative platforms.

384 GB DDR4 maximum memory

The server accepts up to 384 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory across 12 DIMM slots. The current 32 GB configuration leaves significant headroom for expansion. Memory speed operates at 2400 MT/s. This ceiling determines whether the platform can support your planned virtual machine density or in-memory database requirements.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 2.2 GHz or 2.9 GHz speed for my workload?

The processors run at a base of 2.2 GHz and can boost to 2.9 GHz when thermal headroom allows, so you get both speeds automatically.

What does the 32 GB DDR4-2400 memory mean for actual virtualization capacity?

With 32 GB installed across four slots, you can run several light virtual machines; the board supports up to 384 GB if you need more density later.

How does the PERC H330 controller limit the four 960 GB SSDs in practice?

The H330 provides 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA connectivity, so each 960 GB SSD operates at full SATA 6 Gb/s speed without controller bottlenecks.
