DELL PowerEdge R630 rack server, 2×Xeon E5-2697 V3 14-core 2.6 GHz, 512 GB DDR4, 7.68 TB SATA SSD, rail kit

Dual-socket rack server for virtualisation

The Dell PowerEdge R630 is a 1U rackmount server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2697 V3 processors, each delivering 14 cores at 2.6 GHz with turbo up to 3.6 GHz. It ships with 512 GB of DDR4 registered memory across 16 DIMM slots and 7.68 TB of SATA SSD storage arranged in a hardware RAID array. A PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache, quad-port 1 GbE networking, dual 750 W power supplies, iDRAC8 Express remote management and a rail kit complete the bundle.

Suits consolidation and virtualisation workloads

This configuration targets small-business virtualisation, database hosting and general application consolidation where high core count and large memory capacity matter. The eight-bay 2.5-inch chassis limits internal drive expansion to eight devices, so buyers who need more storage bays or direct-attached GPU acceleration should evaluate alternative platforms.

512 GB DDR4 registered memory capacity

The installed 512 GB (16 × 32 GB) DDR4 PC4-19200 2400 MHz registered DIMM population fills every available slot, fixing the maximum memory at this level without removing modules. Confirm that your workload fits within this ceiling before purchase.
