Dual Xeon 14-core 5U server

The Dell PowerEdge T430 is a 5U tower server that can also be rack-mounted with an optional kit. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2660 v4 processors, each running at 2.0 GHz with a 3.2 GHz turbo frequency and 14 cores. The system includes 64 GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory across four modules. A PERC HBA330 controller manages four 960 GB SATA SSDs installed in the 2.5-inch hot-swap bays.

Suited for virtualization and database hosts

This configuration fits organisations running VMware ESXi, Microsoft Hyper-V, Proxmox VE, Windows Server or Linux workloads such as SQL Server, file services, backup targets and software-defined storage. The dual-processor design and 16-bay chassis provide room for storage expansion. Buyers who need more than 384 GB of RAM, storage interfaces beyond SATA and SAS, or processors outside the Xeon E5-2600 v3 and v4 families should evaluate other platforms.

Memory ceiling of 384 GB DDR4

The board offers twelve DDR4 slots and supports a maximum of 384 GB of ECC registered memory. With 64 GB installed today, there is headroom for growth, but the platform cannot exceed that limit. Confirm that your application's memory footprint fits within this boundary before committing to the T430.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the dual Xeon E5-2660 v4 14-core CPUs and 64GB DDR4-2400 are detected correctly after first boot?

Enter the BIOS or iDRAC 8 Express interface on boot; both should show two E5-2660 v4 processors running at 2.0GHz with 3.2GHz Turbo, 14 cores each, and 64GB DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory across the populated slots.

Which drives, rails and bezel are included, and what must I source separately?

The unit ships with four 960GB 2.5-inch SATA SSDs installed in the 16-bay chassis, the HBA330 controller, dual 750W PSUs and dual 1GbE ports; front bezel and ready rails are not included and must be purchased separately.

Should I choose this 64GB DDR4 configuration or plan to expand toward the 384GB maximum?

The system arrives with 64GB in four 16GB DDR4-2400 ECC registered DIMMs occupying four of twelve slots, leaving eight free slots for future expansion up to the 384GB limit using matching DDR4 modules.
