CPU Model E5-2683 V4

  • Dual Xeon E5-2683 v4 16-core CPUs deliver 32 threads at 2.1 GHz base
  • 32 GB DDR4 ECC memory across four slots with twelve total slots for 384 GB max
  • PERC H730 1 GB controller supports RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 for flexible data protection
  • Eight 3.5" SAS/SATA hot-swap trays provide high-capacity internal storage expansion
  • Dual 750 W platinum PSUs with hot-swap redundancy keep the 5U chassis running

Server purpose and audience

The Dell PowerEdge T430 is a 5U rack-mount server built for office workloads such as file serving, mail, collaboration and web hosting. It targets small offices and remote or branch locations that need single-server performance and capacity without a full data-centre footprint.

Bundled controller and management impact

The PERC H730 1 GB controller adds hardware RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through, letting the eight 3.5-inch SAS/SATA trays run redundant arrays without a separate card. iDRAC 8 Express provides remote console and lifecycle management so administrators can deploy, monitor and update the system without physical access.

Interface and expansion limits

The platform uses the Intel C610 chipset with LGA 2011-3 sockets supporting up to two Xeon processors and 384 GB across twelve DDR4 slots. Network connectivity is limited to the integrated dual-port 1 GbE Broadcom 5720 LOM, and storage connects only through SAS or SATA interfaces.

Questions about this item

How often will the PERC H730 1GB controller battery need replacement?

The PERC H730 1GB controller includes a battery-backed cache module. Battery life varies with workload and temperature; plan to test it annually and replace it when the iDRAC 8 Express reports a degraded state.

What thermal limit appears first when both Xeon E5-2683 v4 CPUs run at 3.0 GHz Turbo continuously?

With two 16-core processors at 2.1 GHz base and 3.0 GHz Turbo, the 5U chassis relies on the 750 W platinum power supplies and internal airflow; sustained Turbo typically hits the CPU package thermal ceiling before the power budget is exhausted.

How loud are the fans and what is the power draw when the server idles all day with 32GB DDR4 installed?

Idle acoustics are low for a 5U rack system; the dual 750 W platinum PSUs draw only the power needed for the C610 chipset, iDRAC 8 Express, Broadcom 5720 dual 1GbE LOM and four 8 GB DDR4 modules, keeping heat output modest.
