DELL PowerEdge R630 8SFF Xeon E5-2670 v3 2.3GHz 12C 384GB DDR4 No Drive

Dell PowerEdge R630 1U Server

The Dell PowerEdge R630 is a 1U rack-mount server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2670 v3 processor running at 2.3GHz with 12 cores. It ships with 384GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory installed across its 24 DIMM slots. The chassis supports up to eight 2.5-inch drive bays and includes a PERC H730 SAS RAID controller. This configuration suits organisations deploying virtualisation clusters or database workloads that demand high memory density in a compact rack footprint.

Build integration and expansion

The server occupies 1U of rack space and accepts a second Xeon processor to double core count when workloads grow. Its PERC H730 controller manages SAS and SATA drives in hardware RAID, freeing the CPU from parity calculations. Dual 495W power supplies provide redundancy without extra cabling. Four onboard network ports (two 10GbE and two 1GbE) handle management, migration and client traffic without adding NICs. Remote firmware updates and console access are handled by the integrated iDRAC8 Enterprise licence.

Included accessories and software impact

The iDRAC8 Enterprise licence enables full remote power control, virtual media and dedicated network monitoring from day one. Factory-applied firmware updates across BIOS, controller and iDRAC reduce first-boot configuration time. Rails are available on request for tool-less rack mounting. No storage drives are included, so administrators select capacity and endurance ratings that match their specific application profile.
