Dual Xeon E5-2695 v4 5U Server
The Dell PowerEdge T430 is a 5U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2695 v4 processors. Each CPU delivers 18 cores running at 2.1 GHz with a 3.3 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 64 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory across four modules and a PERC H330 storage controller.
Virtualisation and database hosts
This configuration suits organisations running VMware ESXi, Hyper-V or Proxmox clusters that need dense compute and memory headroom. The dual-socket design and 12 DIMM slots support expansion to 384 GB for larger workloads. Buyers who require GPU acceleration or a tower form factor without a rack conversion kit should look elsewhere.
16-bay 2.5-inch hot-swap capacity
The chassis provides sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap drive bays with eight trays included. SAS and SATA drives connect through the 12 Gb/s PERC H330 controller for flexible storage arrays. Redundant 750 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC 8 Express remote management complete the platform.

Questions about this item
What rack space and mounting hardware does this 5U server require?
The server occupies 5U of rack height and uses Dell Ready Rails for mounting; the front bezel and rails are not included with this unit.
How are the two Xeon E5-2695 v4 processors and 64GB DDR4 memory installed, and what step is often missed?
Both CPUs are pre-installed in the LGA 2011 sockets; the 64GB ships as four 16GB DDR4-2400 ECC RDIMMs populating four of twelve slots, and the common oversight is not configuring the remaining slots in matched pairs per channel.
Which components will need replacement over time in this PowerEdge T430?
The hot-swap 750W power supplies and the 2.5-inch drive trays are field-replaceable; the PERC H330 controller battery and the iDRAC 8 Express CMOS battery are the other serviceable parts that typically require attention after several years.
