Dual Xeon 5U Server for Virtualisation and Databases
The Dell PowerEdge T430 is a 5U tower server fitted with two Intel Xeon E5-2695 v4 processors running at 2.1 GHz with a 3.3 GHz turbo. Eighteen cores per processor and 256 GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory across eight modules support virtualisation, database hosting and business-critical workloads. Four 960 GB SATA SSDs and a PERC H330 controller provide high-speed storage in a 16-bay 2.5-inch chassis.
Redundant Platinum Power Supplies and Hot-Swap Bays
Two 750 W platinum-efficiency power supplies deliver redundant hot-swap power for continuous operation. Sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap drive bays accept SAS, SATA and SSD media, allowing storage changes without downtime. Integrated dual-port Gigabit Ethernet and iDRAC 8 Express remote management simplify network connectivity and out-of-band administration.
384 GB Maximum Memory Capacity Limits Consolidation
The system supports a maximum of 384 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory across twelve slots, with 256 GB already installed in eight 32 GB modules. Buyers planning larger virtualisation clusters or in-memory databases that exceed this ceiling will need a platform with higher memory capacity.

Questions about this item
How are the four 960GB SSDs installed in the 16-bay 2.5" chassis, and which step is often missed?
Slide each drive into the hot-swap tray until the latch clicks, then configure the virtual disk in the PERC H330 BIOS before the OS sees the volume.
What maintenance will the 256GB DDR4-2400 ECC memory need later?
No scheduled maintenance; if a DIMM fails, replace it with another DDR4-2400 ECC registered module in one of the 12 slots.
Which limit appears first when both Xeon E5-2695 v4 CPUs run at 3.3GHz turbo under sustained load?
The dual 750W platinum power supplies set the power envelope before thermal throttling engages.
