Dell PowerEdge T430 5U Server

This new 5U rack server delivers dual Intel Xeon E5-2690 v4 processors running at 2.6 GHz with a 3.5 GHz turbo frequency. Each CPU provides 14 cores for a total of 28 processing threads. The system includes 128 GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory across eight 16 GB modules. A Dell PERC H330 storage controller manages the eight included 2.5-inch drive trays.

Suited for virtualization, databases.

The dual-socket configuration and 12 available memory slots supporting up to 384 GB make this platform appropriate for VMware ESXi, Hyper-V, or Proxmox VE clusters. Integrated dual-port Gigabit Ethernet and iDRAC 8 Express remote management simplify deployment. Buyers who need more than sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap drive bays or require a different storage controller should evaluate other platforms.

PERC H330 controller with eight 2.5-inch drive trays

The included Dell PERC H330 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA controller connects directly to the eight supplied drive trays. This combination determines how many drives can be installed immediately and which RAID levels are available. The server supports sixteen 2.5-inch bays total, so additional trays and cabling are required to populate the remaining slots.

Questions about this item

Will the H330 controller recognise my existing 2.5" SAS drives in the 16-bay chassis?

The PERC H330 12Gb/s SAS/SATA controller supports SAS and SATA drives across all sixteen 2.5" hot-swap bays, so your current SAS disks will be detected and can be configured in RAID volumes.

How can I confirm both Xeon E5-2690 v4 processors and the 128GB DDR4-2400 ECC memory are active after power-on?

During POST the system will display two 14-core CPUs at 2.6GHz with 3.5GHz turbo and report 128GB total memory; iDRAC 8 Express also shows the full inventory in its hardware view.

The listing says 8x 2.5" trays included — do I need to buy the remaining trays and any rails separately?

Eight drive trays ship with the server; the other eight trays for the full 16-bay capacity plus front bezel and ready rails are not included and must be purchased separately.
