Dual 18-Core Xeon Server for Virtualization

The DELL PowerEdge T430 arrives as a 5U rack server fitted with two Intel Xeon E5-2695 v4 processors, each delivering 18 cores at 2.1 GHz with a 3.3 GHz turbo frequency. A total of 256 GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory is installed across eight 32 GB modules, leaving four of the twelve DIMM slots free for expansion up to 384 GB. The PERC H730P controller with 2 GB cache manages four 1.92 TB SATA SSDs in the 16-bay 2.5-inch chassis, while dual 1 GbE ports and iDRAC 8 Express handle connectivity and remote management.

Sustained Multi-Threaded Throughput

Dual 18-core CPUs and 256 GB of ECC DDR4 keep all threads fed during long-running virtualization, database or backup workloads without the throttling seen in burst-oriented configurations. Redundant 750 W platinum power supplies and hot-swap drive bays allow component replacement while the server remains online, preserving uptime for business-critical applications. The H730P battery-backed cache protects in-flight writes during unexpected power events, maintaining data integrity across RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 or 60 arrays.

16-Bay 2.5-Inch Chassis Limits Expansion

Sixteen front-accessible 2.5-inch bays set the maximum number of drives this server can hold; no additional internal bays exist beyond the four populated with 1.92 TB SSDs. Buyers who need more storage must use external enclosures or select a different platform, because the chassis capacity is fixed at sixteen drives. The 5U rack height and LGA 2011 socket also define the physical and processor constraints for any future upgrade path.

Questions about this item

How loud and hot do the dual 750 W power supplies and the 18-core Xeon processors run when the server operates continuously?

The dual 750 W Platinum power supplies share the load and are hot-swappable for redundancy. The two Xeon E5-2695 v4 processors have a base speed of 2.1 GHz and can turbo to 3.3 GHz, so thermal output scales with workload. Fan speed is managed by iDRAC 8 Express based on real-time temperature readings.

Which components must I already own to make the 16-bay chassis and PERC H730P controller usable?

The chassis provides sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap bays with SATA and SAS backplane connections. The PERC H730P controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through, but drives are not included. You will need to supply 2.5-inch SATA or SAS drives and any required caddies.

Will my existing DDR4-2400 ECC registered DIMMs work alongside the eight 32 GB modules already installed?

The server has twelve DDR4 slots and currently uses eight slots for 256 GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory. You can add up to four more identical DDR4-2400 ECC registered DIMMs to reach the 384 GB maximum. Mixing speeds will force all modules to run at the slowest installed speed.
