Dual Xeon 14-Core Server Platform

The Dell PowerEdge T430 is a 5U rack server built around two Intel Xeon E5-2690 v4 processors running at 2.6 GHz with 3.5 GHz turbo. Each CPU provides 14 cores and the system ships with 64 GB of DDR4 memory across 12 slots, expandable to 384 GB.

Suits Virtualisation and Storage-Heavy Workloads

This configuration fits teams running VMware, Hyper-V or database instances that benefit from dual-socket compute and the PERC H730P controller with 2 GB cache supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Buyers needing pre-installed drives or a smaller form factor should consider other options.

Sixteen 2.5-Inch Hot-Swap Bays With H730P RAID

The chassis provides 16 SFF bays for SAS or SATA drives, backed by the H730P controller and battery-backed cache. Four drive trays are included; the remaining bays accept standard 2.5-inch caddies for flexible capacity growth.
