Dell PowerEdge R930 4U server

The Dell PowerEdge R930 is a 4U rack server equipped with four Intel Xeon E7-8867 v4 processors. Each processor runs at 2.4 GHz with 16 cores. The system includes 3 TB of DDR4 memory and 24 SATA SSDs of 960 GB each. It is designed for enterprise workloads that demand high compute density and large memory capacity.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

This server suits organisations running memory-intensive applications such as in-memory databases, virtualisation clusters, or analytics platforms. Buyers who need more than four processors or more than 12 TB of memory should look elsewhere. Environments requiring GPU acceleration beyond the integrated Matrox G200 are not served by this configuration.

The specification that decides fit

The 3 TB DDR4 memory capacity across 96 DIMM slots determines whether this system matches the workload. If the application requires less memory, a smaller configuration may be more cost-effective. If it requires more than 12 TB maximum capacity, this platform cannot scale further. The PERC H730P controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60 for the 24 installed SSDs.

Questions about this item

How does the 3TB of DDR4 memory perform in a live workload?

The system ships with 96 modules of 32GB DDR4 2400MHz registered ECC, filling all 96 slots and leaving no room for expansion without removing memory.

What does the H730P controller cap in practice?

The PERC H730P provides 2GB cache and 12Gb/s SAS/SATA connectivity, supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across the 24 installed 960GB SSDs.

What physical space and mounting hardware does the 4U chassis need?

The server occupies 4U of rack height and ships with ready rails and a front bezel for installation in a standard rack enclosure.
