Tower server for office workloads

The Dell PowerEdge T430 is a 5U tower system built around two Xeon E5-2660 v4 processors, each with 14 cores at 2.0 GHz and a 3.2 GHz turbo frequency. It ships with 256 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across eight 32 GB modules and a PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache. Eight 8 TB 7.2K SATA drives fill the 3.5-inch bays, and dual 750 W platinum power supplies provide redundancy.

Suits small offices needing a single-server platform

This configuration fits workgroup collaboration, mail, file, print and web serving in a small or remote office. Buyers who require more than 384 GB of memory, additional drive bays beyond the eight installed, or a rackmount form factor should consider a different platform. The integrated dual-port 1 GbE LOM and iDRAC 8 Express cover basic connectivity and remote management.

256 GB DDR4 registered ECC memory installed

The system arrives with 256 GB of DDR4 2400 MHz registered ECC memory in eight slots, leaving four slots open for expansion up to the 384 GB maximum. This capacity determines how many virtual machines or database instances can run concurrently without swapping. Memory type and speed are fixed to DDR4 registered ECC; other generations or unbuffered modules are not compatible.
