Compact 1U rack server with Xeon E3-1220 v5
The Dell PowerEdge R330 fits a single Intel Xeon E3-1220 v5 quad-core processor running at 3 GHz into a 1U form factor. It ships with 8 GB of DDR4 memory and two 2 TB 7.2K SAS drives managed by a PERC H730 RAID controller. Dual redundant 350 W power supplies and a DVD-ROM complete the baseline configuration.
Suited for single-socket workloads with SAS storage
This server targets environments that need a single Xeon processor, hardware RAID across SAS or SATA drives and redundant power in a shallow rack footprint. It is not for deployments that require a second CPU socket, more than four 3.5-inch hot-plug bays or memory beyond the 64 GB ceiling supported by the four DIMM slots.
RAID flexibility decided by the H730 controller
The PERC H730 provides 1 GB cache and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across the installed SAS drives and any additional bays. This controller choice determines whether the array can deliver the redundancy or performance profile the workload demands.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 3.5" SAS drives into the hot-plug bays, and what step is often missed?
Slide each drive into a bay until the lever clicks, then configure the virtual disk in the H730 RAID BIOS before the OS sees any volume.
Which components will need replacement first during long-term operation?
The 7.2K SAS drives and the two 350W redundant power supplies are the only field-replaceable parts with moving parts or wear-out ratings.
What thermal or power limit appears first when the Xeon E3-1220 v5 runs at full load continuously?
The 350W redundant power supplies set the hard ceiling; sustained CPU plus drive load cannot exceed their combined output.
