Dell VRTX M630 server for virtualised workloads

This Dell VRTX chassis holds two M630 blades, each with dual E5-2630v3 processors at 2.4 GHz and eight cores. The system ships with 128 GB of DDR4 memory across eight modules. Twelve 2.4 TB 10K SAS drives provide high-capacity storage behind a PERC S130 RAID controller. The platform targets organisations consolidating virtual machines or databases in a single 5U enclosure.

Redundant 1600 W power supplies

Four 1600 W redundant power supplies share load and maintain uptime during a unit failure. A single CMC manages both blades and the 1 GB switch module, reducing cable count and simplifying firmware updates. iDRAC8 Express gives remote console access for monitoring thermals and power draw without a local keyboard or monitor.

Eight flexible PCIe slots and blade-local storage

The chassis offers eight PCIe slots — three full-height and five low-profile — for network, storage or accelerator cards. Each blade includes two 16 GB SD cards for hypervisor boot, freeing the SAS bays for application data. The 10 GB Intel X520 dual-port NDC handles east-west traffic between blades and external networks. No optical drive is fitted.

Questions about this item

How do I install the M630 blades into the VRTX chassis, and what step is often missed?

Slide each M630 blade into an empty bay until the latch clicks, then verify in the CMC that both blades show as present and powered; the step often missed is confirming the CMC recognises both blades before closing the chassis.

What maintenance or replacement will the 12x 2.4TB 10K SAS drives need later?

The 12x 2.4TB 10K SAS drives are mechanical; plan to replace any drive that SMART flags or that the PERC S130 marks failed, and keep a spare 2.4TB 10K SAS drive on hand for hot-swap rebuilds.

What limit appears first when the VRTX runs sustained workloads on the 1GB switch module?

The 1GB switch module caps inter-blade and uplink traffic at 1 Gbps, so network throughput becomes the first bottleneck under sustained loads before CPU or storage limits are reached.
