Dell PowerEdge R830 rack server 4× E5-4669v4 2.2GHz 22C 64GB 4× 960GB SATA SSD H730P

Four-socket rack server for dense compute

The Dell PowerEdge R830 is a 2U rack server equipped with four Intel E5-4669v4 processors running at 2.2 GHz, each providing 22 cores. It ships with 64 GB of DDR4 memory arranged as four 16 GB modules at PC4-2400 speed. Four 960 GB SATA SSDs are installed and managed by an H730P RAID controller. The system includes iDRAC8 Enterprise remote management, a quad-port 1 Gb Broadcom 5720 network daughter card, dual 1600 W redundant power supplies, rails and a bezel.

Suits virtualisation hosts needing high core

This configuration fits workloads that benefit from many threads in a compact chassis, such as virtualisation clusters, database nodes or batch-processing farms. The eight 2.5-inch drive bays allow storage expansion beyond the four included SSDs. Buyers who need more memory capacity or faster storage interfaces should look elsewhere, as the board is populated with standard DDR4 DIMMs and the controller supports SATA only.

22 cores per processor at 2.2 GHz

Each of the four CPUs delivers 22 cores with a 55 MB cache at a base frequency of 2.2 GHz, giving the total thread count that drives parallel workloads. This core-density figure is the primary metric for deciding whether the server matches the intended application scale.
