Purpose-built 1U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R430 is a 1U rackmount system built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 eight-core processor running at 2.4 GHz. It ships with 16 GB of DDR4 memory and three 1.2 TB 7.2K SAS drives managed by a PERC H730 RAID controller. This configuration suits small-business virtualization, file serving, or database workloads that fit within the installed capacity.

Installation notes

The chassis accepts up to eight 2.5-inch hot-plug SAS or SATA drives and includes a redundant 550 W power supply. Memory installs across twelve DIMM slots, six per processor, with supported speeds up to 2400 MT/s dependent on the CPU. Two PCIe 3.0 slots are available for expansion cards. The server weighs 43 lbs and measures 26.7 by 18.99 by 1.68 inches, so verify rack depth and weight limits before mounting.

Pre-order checklist

Confirm your rack provides at least 26.7 inches of usable depth and can support the 43 lb unit. Ensure the PDU delivers compatible power for the single 550 W supply. Plan network connectivity around the four onboard 1 GbE ports and decide whether iDRAC8 Enterprise or vFlash upgrades are required for remote management. No operating system is included, so have installation media ready.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the PERC H730 controller and the three 1.2 TB SAS drives are healthy after setup?

Log into iDRAC8 or the H730 BIOS utility to confirm the controller firmware is current, all three 1.2 TB drives show optimal status, and the configured RAID level reports no degraded or rebuilding arrays.

Which components are included and what must be sourced separately?

The server ships with one E5-2630 v3 processor, 16 GB DDR4, three 1.2 TB SAS drives in hot-plug trays, H730 controller with 1 GB cache, one 550 W redundant power supply, DVD drive, power cable and four 1 GbE ports; rails, bezel, a second CPU, extra memory modules and additional drives are not included.

Should I choose the single-processor 16 GB configuration or plan for a second CPU and more memory?

The board supports two Xeon processors and twelve DDR4 slots up to 384 GB; the current unit has one CPU and 16 GB, so add a second E5-2630 v3 and matching DDR4 modules if your workloads need more than sixteen threads or more than 16 GB of RAM.
