Purpose-built 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R530 is a 2U rack-mount server system designed for density-optimised workloads. It ships with a single Intel Xeon E5-2630 V3 eight-core processor at 2.4 GHz and 48 GB of DDR4 memory across twelve DIMM slots. Dual 750 W redundant hot-swap power supplies and an H730 RAID controller with 1 GB cache support RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60.

Fits single-socket density needs

This configuration suits environments that need up to eight 3.5-inch hot-plug SAS or SATA drives and four 1 GbE ports in a compact chassis. It is not for buyers who require dual processors from day one, who need more than 48 GB of installed memory, or who depend on PCIe 3.0 x16 slots for GPU acceleration.

Installed memory capped at 48 GB

The system arrives with 48 GB of DDR4 already populated, reaching the listed maximum installed capacity for this specific build. Expansion beyond that figure would require replacing modules rather than adding to empty slots.

Questions about this item

How deep is the 2U chassis so I can check my rack depth?

The chassis is 25.4 inches deep, 17.1 inches wide and 3.4 inches high.

Does the H730 controller need a specific firmware step when I add the second processor?

Install the second processor first, then update the iDRAC8 and H730 firmware before creating any virtual disks.

Which DDR4 DIMM sizes can I use to reach the 384 GB maximum later?

The 12 slots accept 4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB or 32 GB DDR4 modules up to 2400 MT/s; populate six slots per processor.
