2U rack server with dual Xeon E5-2603 v3

The Dell PowerEdge R530 is a 2U rack server built around two Intel Xeon E5-2603 v3 processors, each with six cores running at 1.6 GHz. It ships with 48 GB of DDR4 memory installed across its 12 DIMM slots. Storage is handled by a PERC H730 RAID controller with 1 GB cache, driving two 600 GB 15K SAS drives in hot-plug 3.5-inch bays. Dual 750 W redundant power supplies and iDRAC8 remote management complete the platform.

Suits compute-bound workloads in existing DDR4

This server suits teams that need a dense, dual-socket Xeon platform for legacy applications, virtualisation clusters or database workloads that run on DDR4 memory and SAS storage. It is not for buyers who need more than 48 GB of memory pre-installed, who require SSD storage out of the box, or who want an operating system included.

Maximum installed memory is 48 GB

The system arrives with 48 GB of DDR4 already populated, which matches the installed-memory figure in the specifications. Any expansion beyond that would require purchasing additional DDR4 modules separately.

Questions about this item

How do I choose between the available drive configurations for this server?

This unit ships with two 600 GB 15 K SAS drives and supports up to eight 3.5-inch hot-plug bays for additional SAS or SATA drives.

What does the 1.6 GHz clock speed mean for actual workloads?

Each of the two Xeon E5-2603 v3 processors has six cores at 1.6 GHz, giving twelve cores total for parallel tasks such as virtualization or database work.

What RAID levels does the H730 controller support and what limits apply?

The H730 1 GB 12 Gbps controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across the SAS drives installed in the eight hot-plug bays.
