DELL PowerEdge R630 8SFF 2x Xeon E5-2697 v4 512GB DDR4

Dual-socket Xeon server with 512GB DDR4

The Dell PowerEdge R630 is a 1U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2697 v4 processors running at 2.3GHz, each providing 18 cores and 45MB cache. It ships with 512GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory installed across 24 DIMM slots, expandable to a maximum of 1.5TB. The chassis supports eight 2.5-inch drive bays and includes a PERC H730 SAS RAID controller with SATA interface support.

Virtualisation hosts needing dense memory capacity

This configuration suits organisations building virtualisation clusters, database nodes or high-performance compute farms that benefit from 36 total cores and half a terabyte of RAM in a single rack unit. Buyers who require more than eight drive bays or need GPU-accelerated workloads should consider a different platform, as the system uses integrated graphics only and the 1U form factor limits expansion cards.

512GB DDR4 ECC registered memory installed

The installed 512GB DDR4 ECC registered memory is the decisive specification for memory-intensive applications such as in-memory databases or large VM densities. The platform supports up to 1.5TB total capacity across 24 slots, allowing future upgrades without replacing the existing modules. Compatibility is limited to DDR4 registered ECC DIMMs; other memory types will not function.
