Dual Xeon 18-Core 5U Server
The Dell PowerEdge T430 is a 5U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2695 v4 processors. Each CPU delivers eighteen cores at 2.1 GHz with a 3.3 GHz turbo frequency. The system ships with 32 GB of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory across twelve slots. It targets organisations that need dense compute for virtualisation, database hosting or private-cloud workloads.
Upgrade From Single-Socket Or Older v3 Platforms
Moving from a single-socket server or an E5-2600 v3 system adds a second processor and doubles the core count to thirty-six total. The jump is worthwhile when workloads exceed the thread capacity of one CPU or when memory bandwidth becomes a bottleneck. The PERC H330 controller and sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap trays also replace limited internal storage with a scalable SAS and SATA array.
384 GB Memory Ceiling And Sixteen Drive Bays
The platform supports up to 384 GB of DDR4 across twelve DIMM slots, giving ample headroom for large VM fleets or in-memory databases. Sixteen front-accessible 2.5-inch bays accommodate high-capacity SAS or SATA SSDs for performance-tier storage. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC 8 Express remote management complete the enterprise feature set.

Questions about this item
What rack height does this 5U server need?
The Dell PowerEdge T430 occupies 5U of rack height and supports an optional rack conversion kit for standard rack deployment.
How are the processors and memory installed, and what step is often missed?
Two Xeon E5-2695 v4 processors are pre-installed in the LGA 2011 sockets; the 32GB DDR4-2400 ECC Registered memory uses four of twelve slots, so populate remaining slots in matched pairs per channel for best performance.
When will the PERC H330 controller battery need replacement?
The PERC H330 RAID controller includes a battery-backed write cache; plan to replace the battery module every three to five years to maintain cache protection during power loss.
