Dell PowerEdge R530 2U server
The Dell PowerEdge R530 is a 2U rack-mount server system built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 eight-core processor running at 2.4 GHz. It ships with 24 GB of DDR4 memory and three 4 TB 7.2K SAS hard drives managed by a PERC H330 RAID controller. Dual 750 W redundant power supplies and a DVD-ROM drive complete the configuration, and no operating system is included.
Suits single-socket deployments needing SAS storage
This server suits environments that need a single-socket platform with hot-plug 3.5-inch SAS drive bays and hardware RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 or 60 support. It is not for buyers who require more than one processor installed, solid-state boot drives, GPU compute capability, 10 GbE networking out of the box, or an operating system included.
Memory capped at 24 GB with one CPU
The installed memory is 24 GB of DDR4 across 12 DIMM slots, but the maximum supported capacity with a single processor is 24 GB. Adding a second Xeon would be necessary to reach the platform's full 384 GB limit, so the current configuration cannot be expanded beyond 24 GB without a processor upgrade.

Questions about this item
Will the 24 GB of DDR4 memory already installed leave room to add more modules later?
The server has 12 DIMM slots and the E5-2630 v3 supports up to 384 GB, so the current 24 GB uses only a few slots and plenty of capacity remains.
How can I verify the H330 RAID controller is managing the three 4 TB SAS drives correctly after first boot?
Open the H330 BIOS utility or iDRAC8 interface during POST to confirm the virtual disk shows the expected RAID level and all three drives report healthy status.
Which items ship inside the box and which must be purchased separately?
The chassis includes one E5-2630 v3 processor, 24 GB DDR4, three 4 TB SAS drives, H330 controller, two 750 W redundant power supplies, DVD drive, power cable and 4 x 1 GbE daughter card; operating system, rail kit and any extra drives or memory are not included.
