1U rack server with Xeon E3-1220 v5

The Dell PowerEdge R330 is a 1U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E3-1220 v5 quad-core processor running at 3.0 GHz. It ships with 4GB of DDR4 memory and two 2TB 7.2K SAS drives managed by a PERC H730 RAID controller. Dual 350W redundant power supplies provide fault-tolerant power for continuous operation in dense rack environments.

Sustained load behaviour

Under sustained workloads the PERC H730 controller with 1GB cache maintains consistent throughput across RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 configurations. The 6Gbps SAS drives deliver steady sequential performance while the 350W redundant power supplies share load to prevent thermal throttling during extended compute or storage tasks. Four DDR4 slots support up to 64GB total capacity for memory-intensive applications.

SAS interface practical limits

The 6Gbps SAS interface caps drive throughput well below the controller's 12Gbps potential, limiting maximum array performance to the drive link speed. Four 3.5-inch hot-plug bays restrict raw capacity to the stated 40TB maximum when fully populated. The single-processor design and two PCIe 3.0 slots constrain expansion options for additional storage controllers or networking cards.

Questions about this item

How loud or hot does the 1U chassis get when the dual 350W power supplies run continuously?

The 1U rack server uses two redundant 350W hot-swap power supplies; fan speed scales with load so sustained operation increases airflow and heat output inside the rack.

Which rails, cables or peripherals must I already have to install this server in a rack?

The unit ships with a power cable only; rail kit, bezel, keyboard, mouse and video cable are not included and must be sourced separately.

Can the H730 RAID controller and 2TB SAS drives work with older SATA disks I might keep from a previous array?

The H730 supports SAS and SATA drives across four 3.5" hot-plug bays, so existing SATA disks can be added alongside the installed 2TB SAS drives.
