Mission-critical compute platform

The Dell PowerEdge R930 is a 4U rack server populated with four Intel Xeon E7-8891 v4 processors, each running at 2.8 GHz with 10 cores. It ships with 1.5 TB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 48 DIMM slots. This configuration targets organisations running large in-memory databases, virtualisation clusters or ERP workloads that demand high core counts and massive memory capacity in a single chassis.

Storage and I/O ceiling

The PERC H730P controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across 24 hot-plug 2.5-inch drive bays using SATA or SAS interfaces. Four 960 GB SATA SSDs are installed, leaving 20 bays open for expansion. Network connectivity comes from an Intel X520/I350 daughter card providing two 1 GbE ports and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports. Buyers needing more than 24 internal drives or onboard NVMe slots without additional hardware will find the chassis at its limit.

Power and management readiness

Four 1100 W 80+ Platinum power supplies deliver redundant power for the fully loaded system. iDRAC8 Enterprise enables remote console, power control and firmware updates without an operating system. ReadyRails and a front bezel are included for standard rack mounting. Organisations without 10 Gb SFP+ switching infrastructure or those requiring GPU acceleration will need separate investments.

Questions about this item

How should I choose between the installed 1.5TB and the maximum 12TB memory capacity?

The server ships with 48 modules of 32GB DDR4 2400MHz Registered ECC totalling 1.5TB across 96 slots. Adding more modules up to the 12TB limit lets you scale for larger in-memory databases or virtualisation clusters.

What does the 2.8GHz base clock with 3.5GHz turbo mean for real workloads?

Each of the four 10-core Xeon E7-8891 v4 processors runs at 2.8GHz base and can boost to 3.5GHz, giving 40 cores total that accelerate single-thread bursts while sustaining high throughput on multi-threaded tasks.

How does the PERC H730P 12Gb/s SAS/SATA controller limit drive performance?

The H730P provides 12Gb/s SAS and 6Gb/s SATA connectivity with 2GB cache and battery backup, so the four installed 960GB SATA SSDs operate at SATA 6Gb/s speeds while the controller supports RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60.
