Server chassis and processor
This Dell PowerEdge T430 server arrives in a 16-bay 2.5-inch chassis with a single Intel Xeon E5-2690 v4 processor running at 2.6GHz. The 14-core CPU provides 35MB of cache for multi-threaded workloads. System memory is 128GB of DDR4 ECC registered RAM, expandable to 384GB.
Storage expansion focus
The configuration suits buyers who need dense 2.5-inch drive capacity with a PERC H730 SAS RAID controller and iDRAC8 Express remote management. It is not suited for buyers who want drives included or who require a second processor installed. Dual 1100W power supplies and a 1Gb dual-port Ethernet adapter are fitted.
Drive bay count decides fit
The defining specification is the 16-bay 2.5-inch chassis that determines how many SAS drives can be installed. Buyers must match their storage plan to this bay count and the H730 controller. All firmware is updated to the latest stable version before shipment.

Questions about this item
Should I pick the single E5-2690 v4 or add a second processor?
One 14-core 2.6 GHz CPU is installed and the board supports up to 2, so add the second when workloads need more than 14 cores.
What does 128 GB DDR4 mean for actual workloads?
128 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory is fitted and the system can scale to 384 GB, so large databases or virtualisation hosts have headroom.
What does the PERC H730 SAS controller limit in practice?
The PERC H730 RAID controller manages the 16 SAS drive bays, so storage performance and redundancy depend on the drives you install.
