Great server. Use this to run my Plex Media predominantly, and a few various other applications and it works flawlessly. And surprisingly quiet for a Xeon server. Would totally buy this again.
The Dell PowerEdge T-30 Purpose built, I would suggest adding RAM to reach 16-24GB, the Xeon CPU processor rocks, the system is very fast and stable despite what normally would be a heavy load even on a decent i7 CPU. This small business/home office server performed so well, I bought another 30 days later to convert into a workstation. I suggest adding a SSD 256GB Samsung 6 GB/sec drive for the file system/operating system files and I point out the buyers should be aware there is only a HDMI video plug and therefore should have a HDMI -> DVI cable handy if needed. The one knock I have on this Tower Server is its black inset Power Button is nearly invisible on its black case. In shaded areas, the user needs a flashlight to locate and use the Power Button. The manufacturer needs to chrome the exterior of the Power Switch to help make it obvious and discern it from the black case. The worse knock on this server is the top two hard drive cages are too close to the power supply to slide in hard drives much less hot swap them out. Is the only way to add hard drives to the top two of the four hard drive cages by first removing the entire power supply? That seems like a total lapse of design and engineering on this product. Very few servers are going to only use two hard drives in the bottom two hard drive cages.
-Basically silent, good for a basic home server, low power draw. -Has an NVMe slot, but has limitations and was disabled in later BIOS versions. -SATA port labeling is annoying. -Has no externally accessible bays, even though they could have made it that way. -Space for many more internal drives, but no simple way to add them. - Tons of USB 3.0 ports. - No VGA or DVI, just DP and HDMI.
Just go ahead and buy another NIC if youre considering this machine. I had no end of problems getting the e1000e to connect at 1gpbs speed on my local network. Threw in a dual port card and boom no problems. Otherwise a great package at a decent price.
It’s a good machine for such a low price. Install windows server 2016 real easy, only concern is there’s only HDMI video out so you’ll need a converter cable
