Built for dense 2U rack deployment

This 2U PowerEdge R530 fits standard racks and ships with redundant 750W hot-swap supplies. A single Xeon E5-2630 V3 at 2.4GHz delivers eight cores and sixteen threads for virtualization hosts, database nodes or file servers. iDRAC8 Express provides out-of-band management from day one.

300GB 15K SAS pair with H730 headroom

Two 300GB 15K 6Gbps SAS drives give fast spindle performance for OS and active data. The H730 1GB 12Gbps controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across up to eight 3.5" hot-plug bays. Installed 16GB DDR4 uses two of twelve DIMM slots; the platform accepts up to 384GB when a second processor is added.

Expansion space and connectivity

Five PCIe slots — three 3.0 and two 2.0 — accommodate HBAs, NICs or GPU accelerators. A four-port 1GbE daughter card handles baseline networking. Matrox G200eR2 video covers console access. The chassis includes rails and a power cable; a second CPU kit and additional memory modules are required to unlock the full 384GB capacity and second processor socket.

Questions about this item

Will the twelve DDR4 slots accept the 8 GB DDR4 modules I already own?

Each slot supports 4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB or 32 GB DDR4 up to 2400 MT/s, so your 8 GB modules will fit and run at the speed the installed Xeon E5-2630 V3 allows.

How can I confirm the H730 RAID controller and both 300 GB 15K SAS drives are healthy after first boot?

Open the iDRAC8 interface or the controller BIOS during POST; both will show the H730 firmware version, the two 300 GB 15K SAS drives, and the RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 virtual disk status.

Does the shipment include rails and a power cable, or must I order them separately?

The supplier description lists a power cable and rail as included peripherals; the redundant 750 W power supplies are already installed in the chassis.
