Dual Xeon 5U server for office workloads

The Dell PowerEdge T430 is a 5U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2683 v4 processors, each running at 2.1 GHz with 16 cores. It includes 256 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 12 slots, expandable to 384 GB. The PERC H730 storage controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through modes. Dual 750 W redundant power supplies and iDRAC8 Express remote management are built in.

Suits small-office and branch-office deployments

This system suits buyers who need a rack-mount platform for file, print, mail, web or collaboration workloads with room for eight 3.5-inch SATA or SAS drives. It is not suited to buyers who need drives included, a tower chassis without rack rails, or memory types other than DDR4. The integrated dual-port 1 GbE adapter meets basic network needs but offers no higher-speed onboard interfaces.

Eight 3.5-inch drive bays with H730 RAID

The single specification that decides fit is the eight 3.5-inch hot-swap trays paired with the PERC H730 1 GB controller. This combination determines how many spinning disks or SSDs you can install and which RAID levels are available. If your storage plan exceeds eight drives or requires a different controller feature set, this server will not match the requirement.

Questions about this item

What does the 2× 16-core 2.1 GHz Xeon setup deliver in this server?

Two E5-2683 v4 processors give 32 cores at 2.1 GHz base with 3.0 GHz turbo, suited for multi-threaded workloads such as virtualization, databases or file serving.

What does the PERC H730 12Gb/s controller cap in practice?

The H730 supports RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 and pass-through at 12Gb/s SAS/SATA; actual throughput depends on the drives installed in the eight 3.5-inch bays.

What clearance and mounting does the 5U T430 chassis require?

The 5U rack-mount chassis fits a standard 5U bay; plastic feet are not included for tower placement.
