Single-socket 10-core server for entry workloads

The Dell PowerEdge R530 is a 2U rack system built around one Intel Xeon E5-2650 v3 processor with ten cores at 2.3GHz and 16GB of DDR4 memory. It ships with two 300GB 15K SAS drives on a PERC H330 controller supporting RAID 0/1/5/10/50/60 and includes redundant 750W power supplies. The chassis provides eight 3.5-inch hot-plug bays for future storage expansion.

Teams needing more memory

This configuration suits small business databases, virtualization hosts or file servers that can start with a single processor and 16GB of RAM. Buyers who need the full 384GB memory ceiling or dual-socket compute performance immediately should consider a different starting point. The single CPU also limits PCIe lane count to three 3.0 and two 2.0 slots.

PERC H330 RAID controller with SAS drives

The installed H330 controller manages the two 300GB 15K SAS drives and any additional SAS or SATA disks added to the eight drive bays. It delivers hardware RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60 without requiring a separate upgrade. This single specification determines whether the storage topology matches the application requirements.
