DELL PowerEdge T430 5U rack server 2x Xeon E5-2660 v4 2.0GHz 14C 16GB DDR4 H730P 16x 2.5" trays 2x 750W

Dual Xeon E5-2660 v4 Server

The Dell PowerEdge T430 is a 5U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2660 v4 processors. Each CPU delivers 14 cores at 2.0 GHz with a 3.2 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 16 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory across 12 DIMM slots, expandable to 384 GB. A PERC H730P RAID controller with 2 GB cache supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60 for SAS and SATA drives.

Virtualisation hosts needing dense 2.5-inch storage

This server suits organisations running VMware ESXi, Hyper-V, or Proxmox on dual-socket Xeon hardware with up to sixteen hot-swap 2.5-inch bays. The integrated dual-port Gigabit Ethernet and iDRAC 8 Express remote management simplify deployment in rack environments. Buyers who require more than two processor sockets, memory capacity beyond 384 GB, or 10 GbE networking onboard should look elsewhere.

Sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap drive bays

The chassis provides sixteen 2.5-inch drive trays connected to the H730P controller, enabling high-density SAS, SATA, or SSD storage in a 5U form factor. Redundant 750 W platinum power supplies and front-accessible trays support continuous operation. No drives are installed, so the buyer must populate bays with compatible 2.5-inch media.
