DELL PowerEdge R530 2U rack server dual Xeon E5-2630 v3 2.4 GHz 32 GB DDR4 H330

Dell PowerEdge R530 dual Xeon server

The Dell PowerEdge R530 is a 2U rack server built around two Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 eight-core processors running at 2.4 GHz. It ships with 32 GB of DDR4 memory across twelve DIMM slots and a PERC H330 RAID controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60. Dual 750 W hot-swap power supplies provide redundancy for continuous operation.

Suits buyers needing dense 3.5-inch hot-plug storage

This server accommodates up to eight 3.5-inch hot-plug SAS or SATA drives, delivering a maximum raw capacity of 80 TB. The H330 controller handles hardware RAID across those bays, and the iDRAC8 with Lifecycle Controller enables remote management. It is not for buyers who require more than the installed 32 GB of memory, as the current configuration has reached the listed maximum capacity. It is also not for workloads needing GPU acceleration, since the only video output is the integrated Matrox G200 with 8 MB cache.

Memory capped at 32 GB DDR4

The specifications list the maximum memory capacity as 32 GB, matching the installed amount across twelve DDR4 slots. This ceiling determines whether the platform can grow with your application; if your workload demands more RAM, this specific unit cannot be expanded further.
