DELL PowerEdge R930 4U rack server 4× Xeon E7-8890 v4 2.2GHz 24-core 384GB DDR4 4× 960GB SSD

Enterprise compute density

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 384 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 48 modules and four 960 GB SATA SSDs managed by a PERC H330 controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 and 50. Dual 10 Gb SFP+ and dual 1 GbE ports plus iDRAC8 Enterprise provide remote management and connectivity.

Chassis and expansion context

The 4U form factor holds up to 24 hot-plug 2.5-inch SAS or SATA drives and supports eight front-accessible NVMe PCIe SSDs for additional I/O. Four 1100 W 80+ Platinum power supplies deliver redundancy, while the Intel C602J chipset and 96 DIMM slots allow memory growth to 12 TB. Ready Rails and a front bezel are included for standard rack installation.

Suited for memory-bound workloads

This configuration targets organisations running in-memory databases, large-scale virtualisation or analytics that benefit from 96 total cores and massive DDR4 capacity. Buyers needing GPU acceleration, single-thread frequency above 3.4 GHz turbo, or direct liquid cooling should evaluate alternative platforms.
