DELL PowerEdge R330 1U server
The DELL PowerEdge R330 is a 1U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E3-1220 v5 quad-core processor running at 3.0 GHz. It ships with 4GB of DDR4 memory, four 1TB 7.2K 3.5-inch SATA drives, a PERC H330 RAID controller and dual 350W redundant power supplies. No operating system is included.
Suitable workloads and limits
This server suits small businesses or branch offices needing a compact rack platform for file, print or light virtualization tasks. The four drive bays and H330 controller support RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and 60. Buyers who need more than 4GB of memory or more than four 3.5-inch drives should look elsewhere.
Memory ceiling decides fit
The system board provides four DIMM slots but the installed configuration is limited to 4GB total. While the chipset supports up to 64GB with 4GB, 8GB or 16GB DDR4 modules at 2400 MT/s, the supplied unit cannot exceed 4GB without additional memory purchases.

Questions about this item
What rack depth and rail kit do I need for the 18.99 inch deep 1U chassis?
The server is 18.99 inches long and requires a standard four-post rack; a compatible rail kit is not included and must be sourced separately.
How do I install the PERC H330 controller and the four 3.5 inch hot-plug drives, and what step is often missed?
Seat the H330 in the dedicated internal storage slot, insert each 1 TB drive into the front bays until the latch clicks, then configure the desired RAID level in the controller BIOS before installing an OS.
When will the 350 W redundant power supplies or the 7.2 K RPM drives need replacement?
The two 350 W hot-swap supplies can be swapped individually without downtime; the four 7.2 K RPM SATA drives should be monitored via the H330 and replaced when SMART alerts indicate wear.
