Dell PowerEdge T430 5U dual-socket server

The Dell PowerEdge T430 is a 5U rack server that supports up to two Intel Xeon processors and ships with two E5-2683 v4 16-core CPUs running at 2.1 GHz. It includes 384 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across twelve slots and a PERC H730 controller with 1 GB cache. The chassis provides eight 3.5-inch drive trays for SATA or SAS drives and dual 750 W hot-swap power supplies.

Installation notes and common pitfalls

The server arrives without hard drives, so you must supply compatible 3.5-inch SATA or SAS drives and install them in the trays. Memory is already populated to the 384 GB maximum, leaving no free DIMM slots for expansion. The PERC H730 supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through; configure the virtual disks before installing an operating system. Plastic mounting feet are not included, so plan for rack rails or a shelf.

Pre-order checklist

Verify that your rack can accommodate a 5U unit and that you have rails or a shelf, as the plastic feet are not supplied. Confirm the drives you intend to use are 3.5-inch SATA or SAS models, because the backplane and trays do not support other form factors. Ensure the dual 750 W power supplies match your facility’s power distribution and voltage. The system includes iDRAC 8 Express for remote management and a Broadcom 5720 dual-port 1 GbE LOM for network connectivity.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the PERC H730 controller and both 750 W power supplies are healthy after the first boot?

Open iDRAC 8 Express during POST, confirm the storage controller reports Optimal with battery present and both power supplies show redundant status and green LEDs on the front panel.

Which drive trays and rails are included and what must I source separately for the 8-bay 3.5" chassis?

The unit ships with eight 3.5" SAS/SATA hot-swap trays and the front bezel; drives, rack rails and any cable-management arms are not included and must be purchased separately.

Should I choose the 256 GB (12 × 32 GB) DDR4 2400 MHz configuration or add modules to reach the 384 GB maximum?

The server already has 12 DIMM slots fully populated with 32 GB registered ECC modules for 384 GB total, matching the C610 chipset limit, so no further memory can be added.
