Rack server for virtualisation workloads

The Dell PowerEdge R530 is a 2U rack server built around two Intel Xeon E5-2630 V3 processors, each delivering eight cores at 2.4GHz. Thirty-two gigabytes of DDR4 memory are installed across twelve DIMM slots, with the platform supporting up to 384GB total capacity. The system targets organisations that need dense compute for virtualisation, database or general-purpose applications in a standard rack footprint.

Sustained compute with redundant power

Under continuous load the dual eight-core CPUs maintain their 2.4GHz base frequency while the two 750W hot-swap power supplies share the draw and provide failover if one unit fails. The Perc H330 RAID controller manages the two 300GB 15K SAS drives and can scale across up to eight 3.5-inch hot-plug bays with support for RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60. Five PCIe slots — three at 3.0 and two at 2.0 — remain available for additional network or storage cards without interrupting operation.

Managed thermals and remote control

Front-to-rear airflow through the 2U chassis keeps component temperatures stable while the redundant fans adjust speed to match thermal demand. Acoustic output stays within typical data-centre limits for a rackmount platform of this class. The integrated iDRAC8 with Lifecycle Controller provides out-of-band monitoring, power control and firmware updates over a dedicated management port, while the four 1GbE daughter-card ports handle production traffic.

Questions about this item

How much heat and power should I expect from the dual E5-2630 V3 CPUs and the two 750W redundant supplies running 24/7?

The dual eight-core Xeon processors draw significant power under load; the two 750W redundant hot-swap units share the load so each runs at lower utilisation, keeping fan speeds and exhaust heat moderate for a 2U rack chassis.

Which rails, cables and operating system must I already have to install this R530 in my cabinet?

The server ships with a power cable only; you must supply rack rails, SAS or SATA drives for the remaining six 3.5-inch hot-plug bays, and your own operating-system licence as none is included.

Will my existing PCIe 2.0 expansion cards and 6 Gbps SAS drives work in the R530's mixed-generation slots and H330 controller?

Yes — the chassis provides three PCIe 3.0 and two PCIe 2.0 slots, and the H330 12 Gbps controller is backward-compatible with 6 Gbps SAS and SATA drives you may already own.
