Dual 14-core Xeon server for virtualization

The Dell PowerEdge T430 delivers 28 total cores at 2.0 GHz base frequency with 3.2 GHz turbo capability. Dual Intel Xeon E5-2660 v4 processors provide the multi-threaded throughput needed for VMware ESXi, Hyper-V or Proxmox VE clusters. 128 GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory across eight DIMMs supports dense virtual machine consolidation and database workloads. Twelve memory slots remain available for future expansion up to 384 GB capacity.

Sustained load handling

Two 750 W platinum-efficiency power supplies operate in redundant configuration to maintain uptime during extended compute tasks. Sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap drive bays accept SAS and SATA drives for continuous operation without shutdown. The PERC HBA330 12 Gb/s controller manages four installed 1.92 TB SATA SSDs with consistent I/O performance under heavy read and write cycles. Dual integrated gigabit Ethernet ports sustain network connectivity for storage replication and cluster heartbeats.

Rack-ready 5U chassis

The 5U rack form factor includes mounting rails for standard cabinet deployment while front bezel remains optional. iDRAC 8 Express provides out-of-band remote console, power control and hardware monitoring over dedicated management network. PCI Express expansion slots accommodate additional RAID controllers, network adapters or specialised accelerators. Tool-less drive carriers and redundant cooling fans simplify maintenance during scheduled service windows.

Questions about this item

How loud and hot does the T430 get with both Xeon E5-2660 v4 CPUs running at 2.0GHz all day?

Dual 750W Platinum power supplies and redundant hot-swap cooling keep the 5U chassis stable under sustained 28-core load, while iDRAC 8 Express monitors thermal sensors in real time.

What caddies and rails do I need before the four 1.92TB SATA SSDs and HBA330 controller become usable?

The 16-bay 2.5-inch front panel accepts standard Dell SFF drive carriers; the HBA330 plugs into a PCIe slot and connects to the backplane with SAS cables.

Will my existing DDR4-2400 ECC RDIMMs work alongside the 128GB already installed in the 12 memory slots?

Yes — the T430 supports up to 384GB of DDR4 ECC Registered memory, so compatible modules can fill any empty slots without speed mismatch.
