Dell PowerEdge R530 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R530 is a 2U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2650 V3 processor with 10 cores running at 2.3 GHz. It ships with 128 GB of DDR4 memory installed across 12 DIMM slots and includes a Dell Perc H730 RAID controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Dual 750 W redundant hot-swap power supplies and a DVD ROM drive complete the base configuration.

Suited for virtualization hosts

This server suits teams that need up to 8 hot-plug 3.5-inch SAS or SATA drive bays and hardware RAID with 1 GB cache. It also fits environments that rely on iDRAC8 remote management and up to five PCIe slots for additional I/O cards. Buyers who require more than two processors, more than 384 GB total memory capacity, or drive bays beyond the eight 3.5-inch slots should look elsewhere.

Maximum memory capacity of 384 GB

The platform supports a maximum of 384 GB of DDR4 memory when both processor sockets are populated, using 12 DIMM slots at speeds up to 2400 MT/s depending on the installed CPU. The current configuration provides 128 GB, leaving room for expansion within the 12-slot limit. This ceiling determines whether the chassis can grow with future memory demands.

Questions about this item

How loud and hot does the PowerEdge R530 get with its 2x 750W redundant power supplies running 24/7?

The R530 uses dual 750W hot-swap supplies that share load, reducing per-unit heat; actual acoustics and thermals depend on the eight 3.5" drive population and ambient airflow in your rack.

Which drives and caddies must I already own to populate the eight 3.5" hot-plug bays?

The chassis accepts 3.5" SAS or SATA drives; Dell hot-plug caddies are required for each bay and are not included with the server.

Will the H730 controller and PCIe 3.0 slots work with my existing SAS HBAs and older PCIe 2.0 cards?

The H730 supports RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 on 12Gbps SAS/SATA, while the riser provides three PCIe 3.0 and two PCIe 2.0 slots for backward-compatible expansion cards.
