Dell PowerEdge T430 16SFF Server
The Dell PowerEdge T430 is a 2U rack server with a 16-bay 2.5-inch chassis. It ships with one Intel Xeon E5-2640 v3 processor at 2.6GHz and 128GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. This configuration targets businesses that need dense local storage capacity in a standard rack footprint.
Installation notes
The unit includes two 1100W power supplies and a PERC H730 RAID controller pre-installed. Drive bays accept SAS drives; no drives are fitted so you must supply your own. Rails are available on request. The iDRAC8 Express licence provides basic remote management out of the box.
Memory ceiling
Maximum supported memory is 384GB across the available DIMM slots. The current 128GB load leaves headroom for future expansion if workloads grow. Buyers who need more than 384GB of RAM should consider a different platform.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the PERC H730 RAID controller and both 1100W power supplies are detected after first boot?
During POST watch for the H730 BIOS banner and verify both PSUs show green LEDs; iDRAC8 Express will then report each supply and the controller as healthy in its system inventory.
Which components ship with the T430 and which must I source separately?
The chassis includes one Xeon E5-2640 v3, 128GB DDR4 ECC RDIMMs, PERC H730, dual 1100W PSUs, 2-port 332T NIC, iDRAC8 Express and rails on request; drives are not installed.
Should I select the 16-bay 2.5" chassis or a different capacity for this configuration?
This unit is the 16-bay 2.5" SFF model supporting up to 16 drives; no other bay-count version is offered for this listing.
