DELL PowerEdge R530 2U server

This 2U rack server ships new with a single Intel Xeon E5-2603 V3 six-core processor at 1.6 GHz and 48 GB of DDR4 memory. The PERC H730 RAID controller manages two 600 GB 15K SAS drives in up to eight hot-plug 3.5-inch bays. Dual 750 W redundant power supplies and an iDRAC8 remote management module complete the platform for departmental workloads.

Suited for internal database or virtualisation hosts

The installed CPU and maxed 48 GB memory fit modest multi-threaded tasks, while the H730 supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 for local redundancy. Organisations needing more than 48 GB RAM, a second processor, or flash-optimised storage tiers should evaluate other configurations.

Single six-core Xeon at 1.6 GHz

Clock speed and core count are fixed by the factory-installed E5-2603 V3; no higher-frequency or higher-core-count processor is included. Buyers whose workloads demand greater single-thread throughput or additional compute sockets must select a different server.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and what must be purchased separately?

The server ships with one Xeon E5-2603 V3 processor, 48 GB DDR4 in 12 DIMM slots, two 600 GB 15 K SAS drives, H730 RAID controller with 1 GB cache, dual 750 W redundant supplies, DVD drive, four 1 GbE ports, iDRAC8 Express, Matrox G200eR2 video, and a power cable. Rails, bezel, keyboard, mouse and video cable are not included.

Should I choose the single-processor 48 GB configuration or add a second CPU and more memory?

The board accepts a second Xeon and supports up to 384 GB across 12 slots (six per CPU). Adding the second processor unlocks the remaining six DIMM slots and doubles PCIe lanes, which is useful for virtualization or database workloads that need more cores and memory bandwidth.

What does the H730 12 Gbps RAID controller deliver in daily use?

The H730 provides 1 GB write-back cache and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 at 12 Gbps SAS speeds, letting the two 600 GB 15 K drives or up to eight 3.5″ bays sustain high random I/O for databases or virtualization while protecting data through parity or mirroring.
