DELL PowerEdge R530 rack server 2× E5-2603 v3 1.6 GHz 32 GB DDR4 2× 300 GB 15K SAS H330

2U rack server with dual Xeon

The Dell PowerEdge R530 is a 2U rackmount server system fitted with two Intel Xeon E5-2603 v3 six-core processors running at 1.6 GHz. It ships with 32 GB of DDR4 memory installed across twelve DIMM slots and includes two 300 GB 15K SAS hard drives in hot-plug 3.5-inch bays. The H330 RAID controller manages storage with support for multiple RAID levels.

Suited for memory-limited workloads.

This configuration suits environments that need a ready-to-run dual-socket server with redundant 750 W power supplies and four 1 GbE network ports. It is not suited for buyers who need more than 32 GB of RAM because the installed memory already reaches the listed maximum capacity. Builders who require additional drive bays beyond the eight 3.5-inch slots or who need PCIe 4.0 connectivity should look at other platforms.

Maximum memory capped at 32 GB

The specification states a maximum memory capacity of 32 GB across the twelve DDR4 slots, matching the factory-installed amount. This fixed ceiling determines whether the server can handle your dataset or virtualisation density, so verify the limit before purchase.
