Dual Xeon 18-Core 5U Server

The Dell PowerEdge T430 is a 5U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2695 v4 processors, each running at 2.1 GHz with 18 cores and a 3.3 GHz turbo frequency. It includes 64 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory across four 16 GB modules and a PERC H330 storage controller managing four 960 GB SATA SSDs. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies provide redundancy for continuous operation.

Suited for virtualisation and database workloads

This configuration suits businesses running VMware ESXi, Microsoft Hyper-V, or Proxmox VE virtualisation, as well as Microsoft SQL Server and database hosting. The sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap bays allow storage expansion using SAS or SATA drives. Buyers needing more than 384 GB of memory, faster single-thread performance beyond 3.3 GHz turbo, or GPU acceleration should evaluate other platforms.

Memory ceiling of 384 GB DDR4

The system supports a maximum of 384 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory across twelve DIMM slots, with 64 GB installed today. This ceiling determines how many virtual machines or how large a dataset can reside in memory before paging to the SSD array. Verify that your application footprint fits within this limit before deployment.

Questions about this item

How many 2.5-inch drive bays are available for adding more SSDs later?

The chassis provides 16 hot-swap bays and four are occupied by the installed 960GB SSDs, leaving 12 bays free for additional SATA or SAS drives.

What steps are required to install the server in a rack using the optional conversion kit?

Attach the rack ears supplied with the conversion kit to the 5U tower chassis, slide the unit into the rack on the included rails, and secure the front bezel; the step often missed is locking the rail latches before tightening the rack screws.

Which memory modules should be purchased to expand the installed 64GB toward the 384GB maximum?

Add DDR4-2400 ECC Registered DIMMs in the 12 available slots, populating them in matched pairs per processor to keep both Xeon E5-2695 v4 CPUs running in quad-channel mode.
