1U rack server for dense compute

The Dell PowerEdge R430 fits a dual-processor Xeon platform into a single rack unit, providing 40 logical cores from two E5-2650 v3 CPUs. It targets environments that need high thread counts in minimal vertical space, such as virtualisation hosts or database nodes. The 16 GB DDR4 baseline suits lighter workloads or acts as a starting point for expansion.

12 DIMM slots with 384 GB ceiling

Memory capacity is the decisive specification: 12 slots across both processors support up to 384 GB of DDR4, but the system ships with only 16 GB installed. Buyers who need large in-memory datasets must budget for additional modules; the current configuration cannot serve memory-intensive applications without an upgrade.

Single 550 W redundant supply

One hot-swap 550 W power module delivers redundancy in a 1U chassis, with the second bay available for a matching unit. The dual ten-core processors and three 15 000 rpm SAS drives draw continuous power, so fan speeds rise under sustained load. Acoustic output is therefore noticeable in quiet rooms, though typical for rack-mounted gear.

Questions about this item

What does the 2.3 GHz clock speed mean for real-world throughput with two ten-core Xeon processors?

The dual E5-2650 v3 CPUs provide 20 physical cores and 40 threads at 2.3 GHz, giving strong multi-threaded performance for virtualisation and database workloads.

Which RAID levels does the H730 controller support and what throughput ceiling does the 12 Gbps SAS interface impose?

The H730 supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60; the 12 Gbps SAS link caps each drive at that bandwidth, so sequential throughput scales with the number of 15 K drives in the array.

What physical space and mounting hardware are required to install this 1U server?

The chassis measures 26.7 by 18.99 by 1.68 inches and weighs 43 lbs; a rail kit is included for mounting in a standard four-post rack.
