Enterprise four-socket server

The Dell PowerEdge R930 is a 4U rack server populated with four Intel Xeon E7-8890 v4 processors, each running at 2.2 GHz with 24 cores. It ships with 3 TB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 96 slots and a PERC H330 controller managing 24 front-accessible 1.8 TB SAS hard drives. Quad-port networking and iDRAC8 Enterprise remote management are included.

Suited for memory-heavy consolidation

This configuration targets workloads that demand large memory footprints and high core counts, such as in-memory databases, virtualisation clusters and analytics platforms. The four-socket design and 96 DIMM slots allow growth to 12 TB of RAM. Buyers who need all-flash NVMe arrays or significantly more raw SAS capacity should evaluate other platforms. Organisations requiring GPU acceleration will not find it here.

Four Xeon 8890 v4 CPUs installed

The decisive specification is the factory-installed processor complement: four Xeon E7-8890 v4 chips delivering 96 total cores at 2.2 GHz base frequency with 3.4 GHz turbo. This fixed four-socket population determines licensing costs, thermal profile and the maximum compute density available in the 4U chassis.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 24 hot-plug 2.5-inch SAS drives and what step is often missed?

Slide each drive into the front bays until the latch clicks; the step often missed is creating the virtual disk in the PERC H330 BIOS before the operating system sees any volume.

Which components will need replacement first under continuous operation?

The 24 1.8 TB 10K SAS drives and the four 1100 W power supplies are the primary field-replaceable units that wear out before the processors or memory.

What limit appears first when all 96 cores run sustained workloads?

The 1100 W power supply rating per module becomes the limiting factor before thermal throttling or memory bandwidth constraints.
