Server identity

The Dell PowerEdge R430 is a 1U rack server built for dual Xeon E5-2603 v3 processors at 1.6 GHz. It ships with 16 GB DDR4 memory, three 300 GB 15K SAS drives and a Perc H330 RAID controller supporting RAID 0/1/5/10/50/60. Target users are IT teams needing dense compute for virtualisation or database workloads in a standard rack.

Installation notes

The chassis accepts up to eight 2.5-inch hot-plug SAS or SATA drives and includes a DVD-ROM drive. Two PCIe 3.0 slots are available for expansion cards. A single 550 W redundant power supply is fitted; the second bay is empty for true redundancy. Rails, bezel and empty drive trays are not included, so plan for separate rack-mount hardware.

Compatibility checklist

Verify that your rack provides at least 26.7 inches of depth and 1U height clearance. Confirm the H330 controller matches your existing RAID topology and that 6 Gbps SAS drives suit your performance targets. Ensure DDR4 modules up to 32 GB per DIMM are sourced if you intend to expand beyond the installed 16 GB. Network infrastructure should support four 1 GbE ports and iDRAC8 remote management.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the H330 RAID controller sees all three 300 GB SAS drives after setup?

Boot into the H330 BIOS utility (Ctrl+R) and confirm each 300 GB 15K 6Gbps SAS drive appears as Online; the virtual disk status should show Optimal for the configured RAID level.

What ships with the server and what must I source separately?

Included: PowerEdge R430 chassis, dual Xeon E5-2603 v3 1.6 GHz CPUs, 16 GB DDR4 (4 GB/8 GB/16 GB/32 GB modules up to 2400 MT/s), 3 × 300 GB 2.5″ SAS drives with trays, H330 12Gbps RAID controller, 1 × 550 W redundant PSU, DVD-ROM, power cable, iDRAC8 Express. Not included: OS, rail kit, bezel, empty trays, mouse, keyboard, video cable.

Which memory capacity should I choose for this 12-slot DDR4 system?

The board has 12 DIMM slots (6 per CPU) supporting 4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB or 32 GB DDR4 modules up to 2400 MT/s; installed capacity is 16 GB and the processor-limited maximum is 384 GB total.
