Dell PowerEdge T430 dual Xeon server

The Dell PowerEdge T430 is a tower server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2695 v4 processors, each running at 2.1 GHz with 18 cores. It ships with 384 GB of DDR4 memory and eight 8 TB SATA hard drives managed by a PERC H730 RAID controller. This configuration targets office workloads such as file serving, mail and web hosting.

Suited for small offices needing single-server

This system fits small or remote offices that want a single tower server with redundant 750 W power supplies, iDRAC 8 Express remote management and dual 1 GbE network ports. Buyers who need solid-state primary storage, more than two processor sockets or memory beyond the 384 GB maximum should look at a different platform.

384 GB DDR4 memory ceiling fixed by 12 slots

The board provides 12 DIMM slots populated with 32 GB modules to reach the 384 GB maximum. No further memory expansion is possible without replacing existing modules. DDR4 is the only supported memory type.

Questions about this item

What rack space and rails are needed to mount the 5U PowerEdge T430 tower chassis?

The T430 is a 5U tower chassis; front bezel and ready rails are not included, so you must supply compatible rails or a shelf and allow 5U of vertical rack space for installation.

Which memory slots are populated first when installing the 384 GB DDR4 ECC configuration?

The system has 12 DDR4 slots populated with 12 × 32 GB registered ECC modules at 2400 MHz; follow the CPU-specific population sequence in the service manual to ensure all channels are active.

When should the PERC H730 RAID controller battery be checked or replaced?

The H730 includes a 1 GB cache battery; Dell recommends checking battery health via iDRAC8 Express annually and replacing it when the controller reports a degraded or failed battery status.
