Built for Office Workloads

The Dell PowerEdge T430 is a tower server designed for small offices and remote branch locations. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2695 v4 processors, each delivering 18 cores at 2.1 GHz with a 3.3 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 128 GB of DDR4 ECC memory across eight 16 GB modules and eight 8 TB SATA hard drives managed by a PERC H730 RAID controller. Dual 750 W power supplies and iDRAC8 Express remote management come standard.

Suited for Traditional Applications

This configuration fits workloads such as file and print serving, mail, messaging, web serving and workgroup collaboration. The 12 DIMM slots allow memory expansion up to 384 GB, and the eight 3.5-inch drive bays provide high-capacity internal storage. Buyers who need more than two processors or a rackmount form factor should look elsewhere. The front bezel and ready rails are not included with this unit.

Storage Controller Decides RAID Options

The PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. It handles both SAS and SATA drives over a 12 Gb/s interface. If your deployment requires a different RAID level set or a controller without battery-backed cache, this server will not match those needs.

Questions about this item

How loud and hot do the dual 750 W Platinum supplies and two 18-core Xeons get under 24/7 load?

Dual 750 W Platinum supplies run efficiently at high load, and the tower chassis uses multiple managed fans to cool two 2.1 GHz 18-core Xeons continuously.

Which rails, bezel or cabling must I supply to install this 8-bay tower in my rack?

Front bezel and ReadyRails are not included; you provide the sliding rails and any cable management arms.

Will the PERC H730 controller and 1 GbE LOM work with my existing 6 Gb/s SATA drives and Cat5e patch panel?

The H730 supports SATA 6 Gb/s and SAS 12 Gb/s drives in RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60, and the Broadcom 5720 dual-port 1 GbE LOM connects to standard Cat5e.
