DELL PowerEdge R930 4U rack server 4× Xeon E7-8890 v4 2.2GHz 24-core 384GB DDR4 24× 1.92TB SSD

Mission-critical enterprise server

The Dell PowerEdge R930 is a 4U rack server equipped with four Intel Xeon E7-8890 v4 processors, each running at 2.2 GHz with 24 cores. It ships with 384 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 48 modules and includes 24 enterprise-grade 1.92 TB SATA SSDs managed by a PERC H730P RAID controller. The system targets organisations running large-scale databases, virtualisation clusters, or ERP platforms that demand high core counts and massive memory capacity in a single chassis.

Sustained multi-socket throughput

With all four sockets populated, the server delivers 96 cores and supports turbo frequencies up to 3.4 GHz for burst workloads. The H730P controller with 2 GB cache maintains consistent I/O performance across RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60 configurations during extended operations. Four 1100 W platinum-rated power supplies provide redundant power delivery, while iDRAC 8 Enterprise enables continuous remote monitoring and management without interrupting running services.

Pre-deployment checklist

Verify that your rack provides 4U of vertical space and supports the included ready rails for secure mounting. Confirm the facility can supply adequate power for four 1100 W units and that network infrastructure accommodates the dual 10 Gb SFP+ and dual 1 GbE ports on the X520/I350 daughter card. Ensure your operating system and hypervisor versions are certified for the Intel C602J chipset and the Matrox G200 graphics subsystem with 8 MB video memory.
