Server overview

The Dell PowerEdge T320 is a tower server system built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2420 six-core processor running at 1.9 GHz with twelve virtual threads. It arrives with 48 GB of DDR3 memory installed across six DIMM slots and a Dell PERC H710 RAID controller with 512 MB cache supporting RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Two 495 W redundant power supplies and a DVD-ROM drive complete the base configuration.

Ideal use cases

This server suits small-business workloads such as file and print serving, light virtualisation or a local database that fit within 48 GB of RAM and eight 3.5-inch hot-plug drive bays. The single-socket design and maximum memory ceiling of 48 GB mean it cannot support multi-processor scaling or larger memory footprints, so buyers needing more cores or more than 48 GB should look elsewhere.

Capacity and headroom

The chassis provides up to eight 3.5-inch SATA or SAS hot-plug bays with a total raw capacity limit of 64 TB, while the H710 controller handles 6 Gbps throughput for the configured RAID array. Memory is fixed at the installed 48 GB because the platform maximum matches the current population, leaving no headroom for RAM expansion. Five PCIe slots — one full-length x16 Gen 3.0, three x8 slots (two Gen 3.0, one Gen 2.0) and one x8 slot wired x1 Gen 2.0 — offer room for additional NICs, HBAs or other add-in cards.

Questions about this item

What drives do I need to populate the 8×3.5" hot-plug bays?

The bays accept 3.5" SATA or SAS hard drives or SSDs; drives and trays are not included.

Can I keep using the PERC H710 controller with older 3Gbps SAS drives?

Yes, the H710 6Gbps controller is backward compatible with 3Gbps SAS and SATA drives.

How do I verify the H710 RAID controller is healthy after installation?

During POST press Ctrl+R to enter the H710 BIOS utility and confirm the controller firmware version, battery status and virtual-disk state show optimal.
