DELL PowerEdge R630 8SFF 2x Xeon E5-2667 v4 512GB DDR4 No Drive

Server Overview

The Dell PowerEdge R630 is a 1U rack-mount server system fitted with two Intel Xeon E5-2667 v4 processors running at 3.2GHz each. It ships with 512GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC H730 SAS controller supporting up to eight 2.5-inch SATA drive bays. Remote management is provided by iDRAC8 Enterprise and dual 495W power supplies deliver redundancy. The unit is new with all firmware updated to the latest stable version.

Ideal Use Cases

This configuration suits virtualisation hosts, database nodes or high-performance compute clusters that need high core counts and large memory capacity in a dense 1U form factor. Buyers who require GPU acceleration, more than eight drive bays or a different drive interface should evaluate alternative platforms. Organisations needing a tower chassis or single-processor economy will not find those attributes here.

Deciding Specification

The installed memory capacity of 512GB DDR4 is the key figure that determines whether this server matches the workload. The system can be expanded to a maximum of 1.5TB across its DIMM slots, so buyers planning larger in-memory datasets must verify the upgrade path before purchase. The PERC H730 controller and eight SATA bays define the storage ceiling for this chassis.
