2U Rack Server for Small Business Workloads

The Dell PowerEdge R530 is a 2U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2603 v3 six-core processor running at 1.6 GHz. It ships with 24 GB of DDR4 memory across twelve DIMM slots and includes two 600 GB 15K SAS drives managed by a PERC H730 RAID controller. Dual 750 W redundant power supplies and iDRAC8 remote management come standard.

Fits General Purpose Tasks Not Heavy Compute

This server suits small businesses needing a reliable platform for file serving, light virtualisation or database tasks with room for up to eight 3.5-inch hot-plug drives. Buyers who need higher single-thread performance, more than one CPU from the start or GPU-accelerated workloads should evaluate other options.

Single Six Core 1.6 GHz Xeon Processor

The installed E5-2603 v3 provides six cores at 1.6 GHz with a second socket available for expansion. This clock speed and core count define the baseline throughput for every application running on the system.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the PERC H730 controller and both 600 GB SAS drives are recognised after power-on?

During POST open the H730 BIOS utility (Ctrl+R) and verify the controller firmware version, then check that both 600 GB 15K drives appear as Ready in the virtual-disk view; the iDRAC8 System > Storage page will also list each physical disk with its capacity and status.

Which items ship with the server and which must be sourced separately?

The unit includes one Xeon E5-2603 v3, 24 GB DDR4 across 12 slots, two 600 GB 15K SAS drives, PERC H730 with 1 GB cache, dual 750 W redundant supplies, DVD-ROM, iDRAC8 Express, Matrox G200eR2 video, power cable and 4 x 1 GbE daughter card; rails, bezel, keyboard, mouse and video cable are not included.

Should I choose the single-processor 24 GB configuration or add a second CPU and more memory?

The chassis supports two processors and 12 DIMM slots (six per CPU) with a 384 GB maximum; adding a second E5-2603 v3 and populating the remaining slots lets you scale beyond the installed 24 GB for heavier workloads.
