2U Rack Server with Dual Xeon Processors

The Dell PowerEdge R530 is a 2U rack-mount server built for virtualisation, database workloads and general-purpose business applications. It ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2630 V3 eight-core processors running at 2.4 GHz, 16 GB of DDR4 memory and two 300 GB 15K SAS drives on a PERC H330 RAID controller supporting levels 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60. Dual redundant 750 W power supplies and eight hot-plug 3.5-inch drive bays provide resilience and room for storage growth.

Ideal for virtualisation hosts

This configuration suits IT teams that need a balanced compute platform with hardware RAID and redundant power for 24/7 operation. The 12 DIMM slots allow memory expansion up to 384 GB, and five PCIe slots (three PCIe 3.0 and two PCIe 2.0) support additional network or storage adapters. Buyers who require higher single-thread performance, GPU-accelerated compute density or more than eight internal drive bays should evaluate other platforms.

PERC H330 RAID Controller with SAS Drives

The installed PERC H330 12 Gbps controller manages the two 300 GB 15K SAS drives and supports up to 80 TB of total raw capacity across the eight drive bays. It provides hardware RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60 without consuming host CPU cycles. This specification determines whether the server meets your data-protection and throughput requirements for transactional databases or virtual machine storage.

Questions about this item

What rack space does the 2U R530 chassis occupy?

The server is a 2U rack unit, so it uses two rack units of vertical space in a standard rack enclosure.

How are the CPUs and memory installed, and what step is often missed?

The two E5-2630 v3 processors are pre-installed; the 16 GB DDR4 memory occupies some of the 12 DIMM slots (six per processor), and the step often missed is populating slots in the correct per-processor channel order.

Which components will need replacement over the life of the server?

The two 300 GB 15K SAS drives, the DVD-ROM drive, the two 750 W redundant power supplies and system fans are the field-replaceable units that typically wear out first.
