Mission-critical compute density

The Dell PowerEdge R930 is a 4U rack server equipped with four Intel Xeon E7-8891 v4 processors running at 2.8 GHz, each providing 10 cores for a total of 40 cores. It ships with 3 TB of DDR4 2400 MHz registered ECC memory across 96 DIMM slots, expandable to 12 TB. This configuration targets enterprises running in-memory databases, large-scale virtualization, and ERP or SAP HANA workloads that demand maximum core count and memory capacity in a single chassis.

Redundant platinum power and managed thermals

Four hot-plug 1100 W 80+ Platinum power supplies provide N+N redundancy, ensuring continuous operation during a module failure. The 4U form factor allows ample airflow across the CPU and memory subsystems, while iDRAC8 Enterprise enables remote thermal monitoring and fan-speed policies without host OS involvement. The platform's RAS features and the PERC H730P controller's battery-backed cache protect data integrity during unexpected power events.

High-density storage and connectivity ready

The chassis includes four 2.5-inch drive trays supporting SATA and SAS drives behind the PERC H730P controller with RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60 support. A quad-port network daughter card delivers two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ connections for flexible fabric integration. ReadyRails and a front bezel are included for standard rack mounting. Buyers needing more than four internal drives or direct NVMe U.2 bays will require a different chassis configuration.

Questions about this item

How do I install the Xeon E7-8891 v4 processors into the LGA 2011 sockets, and which step is most often missed?

Align each processor with the socket keys, lower the lever evenly, then attach the heatsink and connect its fan cable; the step most often missed is seating the heatsink retention clips fully before tightening screws.

What maintenance will the PERC H730P 2GB storage controller battery require over time?

The controller battery backs the write cache; it typically needs replacement every three to five years, and iDRAC 8 Enterprise will alert you when its charge capacity drops below the threshold.

At what point does the 4U chassis airflow become the limiting factor during sustained full-load operation?

With four 1100 W platinum power supplies and all 96 DIMM slots populated, the system fans ramp to maximum speed first, making thermal headroom the primary limit before power or memory bandwidth saturates.
