DELL PowerEdge R630 1U rack server E5-2650 V3 2.3GHz 64GB DDR4 H730 10-bay

Dell PowerEdge R630 1U Server

This 1U rack server ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2650 V3 ten-core processor at 2.3 GHz and 64 GB of DDR4 memory across 24 DIMM slots. The chassis provides ten 2.5-inch hot-plug bays for SAS or SATA drives backed by a Dell PERC H730 RAID controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Dual redundant 750 W power supplies and a four-port 1 GbE daughter card complete the baseline configuration.

Target Workloads and Limits

The system suits virtualization hosts, database nodes or dense compute clusters that need maximum drive count in a single rack unit. Buyers who require more than two processors, more than 64 GB of factory-installed memory, or GPU-accelerated workloads should evaluate larger platforms because the R630 maxes out at two CPUs, 64 GB as configured, and a Matrox G200 video controller.

Deciding Specification — Ten 2.5-Inch Drive Bays

The ten-bay front panel is the single constraint that determines fit: it delivers the highest 2.5-inch drive density in a 1U Dell rack server, but it excludes 3.5-inch drives and leaves no room for an optical drive. If your deployment needs more than ten drives or requires 3.5-inch media, this chassis cannot accommodate it.
