Purpose-built compute density
This Dell PowerEdge R630 fits two Xeon E5-2620 v3 processors and 512 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory into a 1U rack enclosure. Eight 2.5-inch SAS bays and a PERC H730 RAID controller provide flexible local storage. Dual 10 GbE and dual 1 GbE ports handle heavy network traffic, while iDRAC8 Enterprise gives full remote management. The system ships with firmware updated and burn-in tested.
Suited workloads and limits
The configuration targets virtualisation hosts, database nodes and high-performance computing clusters that need many cores and large memory in minimal rack space. It is not for buyers who require pre-installed storage drives. It is not for environments that need GPU acceleration because only integrated graphics are present. It is not for deployments that demand more than two processor sockets or memory beyond 1.5 TB.
Deciding specification
The installed 512 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory across two Xeon E5-2620 v3 CPUs is the single figure that determines whether this server matches the workload. Buyers needing less capacity or a different memory generation should evaluate other platforms.

Questions about this item
How should I decide between the eight 2.5-inch bays and the maximum memory of 1.5 TB?
The eight 2.5-inch bays set the physical drive limit; the 1.5 TB ceiling sets the RAM limit. Pick drives first for capacity or IOPS, then add DDR4 modules up to 1.5 TB to match the workload.
What does the 2.4 GHz clock on the two Xeon E5-2620 v3 CPUs deliver in a live server?
Two six-core Xeon E5-2620 v3 processors running at 2.4 GHz provide 12 cores and 24 threads for parallel workloads such as virtualization or database tasks.
What does the PERC H730 SAS controller cap in practice?
The PERC H730 SAS controller manages RAID across the eight 2.5-inch bays and connects to the SAS backplane, defining the maximum drive count and RAID level support.
