DELL PowerEdge R430 1U rack server E5-2650 v3 10-core 2.3GHz 96GB DDR4 H330

1U rack server with dual redundant supplies

The Dell PowerEdge R430 occupies a single rack unit and ships with two 550 W hot-swap power supplies. A single Intel Xeon E5-2650 v3 provides ten cores at 2.3 GHz with 20 virtual threads. Ninety-six gigabytes of DDR4 memory fill the installed DIMM slots, and the H330 controller manages up to eight 2.5-inch hot-plug SAS or SATA drives.

Sustained load behaviour with H330 RAID

The H330 12 Gbps RAID controller supports levels 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60 for continuous array operation. Dual redundant power supplies maintain uptime if one unit fails during extended workloads. Four 1 GbE ports handle steady network traffic, while the Matrox G200 graphics chip provides basic video output without taxing the CPU. Two PCIe 3.0 slots remain available for additional I/O cards.

Compatibility checks before ordering

Verify that your rack can accept a 1U chassis measuring 26.7 by 18.99 by 1.68 inches and weighing 43 lbs. The system ships without drive trays, an operating system, rail kit, bezel or input peripherals. Maximum memory capacity is 384 GB across twelve DDR4 slots, so plan upgrades within that limit. A second processor can be added to reach the two-socket maximum.
