Dell PowerEdge R930 4U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R930 is a 4U rack server built for enterprise workloads. It contains four Intel Xeon E7-8890 v4 processors running at 2.2 GHz with 24 cores each. The system includes 384 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 48 modules. Twenty-four 960 GB SATA SSDs provide storage managed by a PERC H730P controller.

Suited for memory-intensive databases

This server suits organisations running in-memory databases, large-scale virtualisation, or analytics platforms that demand high core counts and massive memory capacity. The 96 DIMM slots support expansion up to 12 TB of DDR4. Buyers needing GPU acceleration or front-accessible NVMe PCIe drives should evaluate other platforms, as this unit ships with a Matrox G200 graphics adapter and SATA SSDs only.

96 DDR4 DIMM slots for up to 12 TB memory

The defining specification is the 96 DDR4 DIMM slots supporting a maximum of 12 TB of registered ECC memory. This density allows the R930 to hold entire working datasets in RAM for SAP HANA, Oracle, or SQL Server deployments. The current 384 GB configuration uses 48 of the 96 available slots, leaving headroom for future growth without adding chassis.

Questions about this item

What SAS/SATA controller speed does the PERC H730P provide for the 24 installed SSDs?

The PERC H730P is a 12Gb/s SAS/SATA controller with 2GB cache and battery backup, driving all twenty-four 960GB SATA 6Gb/s SSDs through the internal backplane.

What physical mounting hardware is included for rack installation?

The unit ships with Dell Ready Rails sliding rails and a front bezel for 4U rackmount installation.

How is the H730P RAID controller battery installed, and what step is often missed?

The battery connects to the controller via a dedicated cable; the step often missed is securing the battery pack to the chassis mounting bracket so it does not hang loose.
