Dual-socket Xeon server for dense compute

The Dell PowerEdge R430 fits two Xeon E5-2650 v3 processors, each with ten cores running at 2.3 GHz, giving 40 virtual cores with hyperthreading. Sixteen gigabytes of DDR4 memory are installed across twelve DIMM slots, and the chassis occupies only one rack unit. It is aimed at organisations that need concentrated processing power in a small footprint.

Sustained load behaviour with H730 RAID

Three 1.2 TB SAS drives spin at 7.2K rpm behind a Perc H730 controller with one gigabyte of cache, supporting RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. The single 550 W redundant power supply feeds both CPUs and the drive bays continuously. Four 1 GbE ports and two PCIe 3.0 slots remain available for additional I/O under prolonged demand.

Check your rack depth and memory ceiling

The unit measures 26.7 inches deep, so verify that your cabinet can accommodate that length with cable clearance. Maximum supported memory is 384 GB, but the installed processors limit DDR4 speed to 2400 MT/s. No operating system is included, and the iDRAC8 Express licence ships by default.

Questions about this item

How much heat and power should I expect from the dual Xeon E5-2650 v3 CPUs and 550 W redundant supply running continuously?

Two ten-core Xeon E5-2650 v3 processors at 2.3 GHz draw significant power under load; the single 550 W redundant supply handles peak demand, so plan for substantial heat output in a 1U rack space.

Which components must I already have to operate this server — rails, drives, memory or an OS?

The unit ships with a power cable, rail kit, bezel and three 1.2 TB SAS drives in trays; 16 GB DDR4 is installed across 12 DIMM slots, but no operating system is included.

Will my existing PCIe 2.0 cards and SATA SSDs work in the two PCIe 3.0 slots and eight 2.5-inch bays?

Both PCIe 3.0 slots and the SAS backplane accept older PCIe 2.0 cards and SATA drives, though they will run at the slower generation speeds.
