Dual Xeon 18-core server for virtualization

The Dell PowerEdge T430 is a 5U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2695 v4 processors, each running 18 cores at 2.1 GHz with a 3.3 GHz turbo frequency. It ships with 16 GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory across two modules and a PERC H330 storage controller. The platform targets organisations running VMware ESXi, Hyper-V, Proxmox VE, SQL Server or file and print workloads that need room to expand inside a 16-bay 2.5-inch chassis.

Redundant 750 W platinum power supplies

Two 750 watt platinum-efficiency power supplies provide redundant hot-swap power for continuous operation. The 5U form factor allows ample airflow across the dual-socket motherboard and sixteen drive bays while keeping acoustic levels suitable for a rack environment. Power draw scales with the installed processors, memory population and storage configuration.

Four 1.92 TB SATA SSDs

The bundle includes four Dell enterprise 1.92 TB SATA 6 Gb/s solid-state drives ready for the hot-swap bays. Integrated iDRAC 8 Express delivers out-of-band remote management with Lifecycle Controller for firmware updates and hardware inventory without an operating system. Front bezel and ready rails are not included.

Questions about this item

How do I install the Dell PERC H330 controller and what step is commonly missed?

Seat the PERC H330 in a PCIe slot, connect the SAS cables to the backplane, then enable the controller in the BIOS before creating any virtual disks; skipping the BIOS enable step leaves the drives invisible to the installer.

Which components will need replacement first during the server's life?

The two 750 W Platinum power supplies and the four 1.92 TB SATA SSDs are the primary field-replaceable units; the hot-swap drive bays and redundant PSU design let you swap them without downtime.

What thermal or power limit appears first when both Xeon E5-2695 v4 CPUs run at 3.3 GHz turbo continuously?

The dual 750 W PSUs set the sustained power ceiling; prolonged 3.3 GHz turbo on all 18 cores per socket can trip the PSU overload protection before the CPU thermal throttling engages.
