Dual Xeon 2U server for virtualization workloads

The Dell PowerEdge R530 delivers two eight-core E5-2630 v3 processors running at 2.4GHz with 48GB of DDR4 memory across twelve DIMM slots. It is built for small-to-mid-sized businesses that need a compact rack platform for virtual machines, databases or file services. Buyers who require GPU acceleration or single-threaded burst performance beyond the Haswell microarchitecture will not find it here.

Eight hot-plug bays with H330 RAID and PCIe

The chassis accepts up to eight 3.5-inch SAS or SATA drives served by a Perc H330 controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60. Two 300GB 15K SAS drives ship installed. Five PCIe slots — three at 3.0 and two at 2.0 — provide room for additional NICs, HBAs or flash cards. The half-height form factor rules out full-length add-in cards.

Redundant 750W supplies and iDRAC8 remote management

Dual hot-swap 750W power supplies keep the system running during a single-unit failure. iDRAC8 Express ships standard with optional Enterprise and vFlash upgrades for out-of-band control. A Matrox G200eR2 handles basic video while the four-port 1GbE daughter card manages network traffic.

Questions about this item

How much DDR4 memory can the R530 take before I hit the ceiling?

The system board has 12 DIMM slots and supports up to 384 GB of DDR4 when fully populated with 32 GB modules.

What kind of heat and fan noise should I expect from the dual 750 W redundant supplies running 24/7?

Dual 750 W hot-swap power supplies share the load, keeping each unit at lower utilisation and reducing fan speed compared with a single supply at full load.

Which rails or cables do I need on hand to mount and power the 2U chassis in a standard rack?

The server includes a power cable; a compatible rail kit for the 25.4-inch depth must be sourced separately if not already installed in the rack.
