DELL PowerEdge T430 5U rack server 2× Xeon E5-2690 v4 2.6GHz 14‑core 16GB DDR4 H730P 16× 2.5″ trays 2× 750W

Dual Xeon E5-2690 v4 5U server

This Dell PowerEdge T430 is a 5U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2690 v4 processors. Each CPU provides 14 cores at 2.6 GHz with a 3.5 GHz turbo frequency. The system ships with 16 GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory across 12 slots and supports up to 384 GB total. It targets businesses running virtualization, databases or file storage workloads.

H730P controller and 16 drive trays

The PERC H730P 2 GB storage controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode for SAS and SATA drives. Sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap trays are installed in the front bays; no drives are included. Redundant 750 W platinum power supplies are hot-swappable. Installation follows standard Dell rail mounting; the bezel and ready rails are not included, so plan for your own rack hardware.

Check CPU sockets and memory layout

Verify that your LGA 2011 platform matches the dual-socket configuration before ordering. The 12 DIMM slots are populated with two 8 GB modules; larger upgrades require compatible DDR4-2400 ECC registered sticks. Network connectivity uses two integrated 1 GbE ports and iDRAC 8 Express for remote management. Ensure your rack depth and power distribution can accommodate a 5U chassis with dual 750 W supplies.
