Dual-socket Xeon tower server

The Dell PowerEdge T430 arrives as a complete tower system with two Intel Xeon E5-2695 v4 processors, each running 18 cores at 2.1 GHz with a 3.3 GHz turbo frequency. It targets small offices and remote branches that need a single box for file, print, mail, collaboration and web workloads without a rack cabinet.

PERC H730 controller with battery-backed cache

The storage controller brings 1 GB of battery-backed write cache and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. Eight 4 TB 7.2 K SATA drives are pre-installed in the 3.5-inch bays, delivering 32 TB of raw capacity under hardware RAID without a separate HBA purchase.

384 GB DDR4 registered ECC at maximum capacity

Twelve DIMM slots are fully populated with 32 GB modules, reaching the platform limit of 384 GB. No further memory expansion is possible, so buyers who need more RAM must choose a different server platform.

Questions about this item

When will the 7.2K SATA hard drives need replacement under continuous operation?

Enterprise 7.2K SATA drives are rated for 24/7 duty cycles; typical service life reaches five years before preventive swap is advised.

Which component reaches its thermal ceiling first when both Xeon E5-2695 v4 processors run at 3.3 GHz turbo continuously?

The dual 18-core CPUs hit their TDP limit before the H730 controller or memory, so CPU package temperature becomes the first throttle point.

How loud are the fans and what is the power draw when the server runs all day with 384 GB DDR4 and eight drives spinning?

Dual 750 W platinum supplies feed the load; fan speed ramps to keep CPU thermals in check, producing noticeable but office-tolerable noise.
