DELL PowerEdge T430 5U Server
The DELL PowerEdge T430 is a 5U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2695 v4 processors running at 2.1GHz with 18 cores each. It includes 128GB of DDR4 memory and a PERC H730P storage controller with 16 hot-swap 2.5-inch drive trays. Dual 750W power supplies provide redundancy for continuous operation.
Virtualisation and database hosts
This server suits organisations running virtualisation platforms, database workloads or file storage that need high core counts and large memory capacity with flexible SAS or SATA drive configurations. It is not suited for buyers who need more than two processors or memory beyond 384GB.
PERC H730P RAID controller
The installed PERC H730P controller supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 with a 2GB cache and battery backup. This specification determines which drive arrays and data protection schemes are available immediately.

Questions about this item
What comes in the box and which drives or rails must be purchased separately?
The server ships with two Xeon E5-2695 v4 processors, 128GB DDR4 in eight 16GB modules, a PERC H730P controller, sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap trays, dual-port gigabit Ethernet, iDRAC 8 Express and two 750W power supplies. Drives, front bezel and ready rails are not included.
How do I choose between the installed 128GB and the 384GB maximum?
Twelve memory slots are fitted; eight are occupied by 16GB DDR4-2400 ECC registered DIMMs. Adding up to four more identical modules reaches 384GB, so select capacity based on the virtualization or database workload you plan to run.
What does the 2.1GHz base and 3.3GHz turbo mean for real workloads?
Eighteen cores per processor at 2.1GHz base with 3.3GHz turbo deliver strong multi-threaded throughput for virtualization hosts, SQL databases or backup targets, while the H730P manages RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across the sixteen SAS or SATA bays.
