Dual Xeon E5-2690 v4 5U Server

This Dell PowerEdge T430 is a new 5U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2690 v4 processors running at 2.6GHz with a 3.5GHz turbo frequency. It includes 256GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory across 8 modules and a Dell PERC HBA330 12Gb/s SAS/SATA storage controller. The chassis provides 8 front-accessible 2.5-inch drive trays within a 16-bay design and redundant 750W platinum power supplies.

Suited for virtualization

This configuration suits IT teams deploying VMware, Hyper-V, or Proxmox clusters that need dense 2.5-inch drive capacity and dual-processor compute in a rack form factor. The HBA330 controller presents drives directly to the OS, making it a fit for software-defined storage or JBOD arrays. Buyers who need hardware RAID with cache protection or a larger memory footprint up to the 384GB maximum should look at alternatives with a PERC RAID card or additional DIMMs installed.

Eight 2.5-inch drive trays and HBA330 controller

The server ships with eight 2.5-inch hot-swap trays installed and the PERC HBA330 controller occupying a PCIe slot. This combination determines how many drives are immediately usable and whether the storage stack relies on host-based RAID or software-defined solutions. No drives are included, so the tray count and controller type are the primary factors in planning the storage deployment.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the PowerEdge T430 is running correctly after installation?

Boot the server, enter the BIOS or iDRAC 8 Express interface and verify both Xeon E5-2690 v4 processors show 14 cores each at 2.6 GHz, all 256 GB DDR4-2400 ECC memory is detected, and the HBA330 controller lists the installed drives.

What ships with the T430 and what must I purchase separately?

The unit includes dual Xeon E5-2690 v4 CPUs, 256 GB DDR4 in 8× 32 GB modules, HBA330 controller, 8× 2.5″ drive trays, dual 750 W PSUs and iDRAC 8 Express. Drives, front bezel, ready rails and rack conversion kit are not included.

Which memory capacity should I choose for the T430?

The server arrives with 256 GB across 8 of 12 DDR4 slots; maximum supported is 384 GB. Add modules only if your workload exceeds 256 GB, otherwise the factory configuration is ready to run.
