Dual 10-core Xeon 1U server

The Dell PowerEdge R430 fits two Intel Xeon E5-2650 v3 processors, each running ten cores at 2.3 GHz, into a 1U rack chassis. Sixteen gigabytes of DDR4 memory and three 1 TB 7.2K SATA drives on a PERC H730 RAID controller provide a ready-to-run platform for virtualisation hosts, database nodes or internal applications that need density and redundant power.

Upgrade from single-socket or older 2U units

Moving from a single-socket server doubles the core count to forty threads with Hyper-Threading, while the H730 controller adds RAID 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 capability that entry-level cards lack. The jump is worth it when workloads exceed the memory or drive-bay limits of a 1U single-processor box but the rack space budget stays at one unit.

Tool-less rails and hot-plug bays simplify install

The server slides into tool-less rails and the eight 2.5-inch hot-plug bays accept drives without powering down. The single 550 W redundant supply means a second module must be added for full N+1 redundancy, and the iDRAC8 Express licence limits remote management until an Enterprise upgrade is applied. Memory population rules require balanced DIMM placement across the twelve slots for optimal speed.

Questions about this item

What rack depth and height clearance does the 1U PowerEdge R430 require?

The server is 26.7 inches long, 18.99 inches wide and 1.68 inches tall, so a standard 1U rack space with at least 26.7 inches of usable depth will accommodate it.

How are the 2.5-inch drives installed in the hot-plug bays, and what step is often missed?

Drives slide into the front bays until the carrier clicks; the common miss is not pushing the release lever fully home so the SAS/SATA connector does not seat.

When will the DDR4 memory modules need replacement or expansion?

The 12 DIMM slots support 4GB, 8GB, 16GB or 32GB DDR4 modules up to 2400MT/s, allowing growth from the installed 16GB to a maximum of 384GB when workloads demand more capacity.
