DELL PowerEdge R930 4U server

The Dell PowerEdge R930 is a 4U rack server built for enterprise workloads that demand high compute density. It ships with four Intel Xeon E7-8891 v4 processors, each running at 2.8 GHz with 10 cores. The system includes 384 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 48 modules. Four 1.8 TB SAS hard drives and a PERC H730P controller provide internal storage.

Suited for memory-heavy databases.

This configuration suits organisations running in-memory databases, virtualisation clusters or ERP platforms that benefit from the 96 total cores and large memory capacity. The Matrox G200 graphics controller with 8 MB video memory makes it unsuitable for workloads requiring GPU acceleration or graphical output. Buyers needing front-accessible NVMe bays or more than four 2.5-inch drive bays should consider other chassis.

12 TB maximum DDR4 capacity decides fit

The platform supports up to 12 TB of DDR4 memory across 96 DIMM slots, which is the critical figure for capacity planning. The installed 384 GB leaves substantial headroom for future expansion. Four 1100 W platinum power supplies deliver redundancy for the fully populated processor and memory configuration.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the four Xeon E7-8891 v4 processors are running at 2.8 GHz after installation?

Check the BIOS or iDRAC 8 Enterprise interface; both will display each CPU running at 2.8 GHz base with 3.5 GHz turbo across all 10 cores.

Which components ship inside the 4U chassis and what must be sourced separately?

The box contains four Xeon E7-8891 v4 CPUs, 48 DDR4 DIMMs totalling 384 GB, PERC H730P controller, four 1.8 TB SAS drives, X520/I350 quad-port network card, four 1100 W power supplies, rails and bezel; operating system and hypervisor licences are not included.

Should I choose the 384 GB DDR4 configuration or plan for the 12 TB maximum?

Select 384 GB now if current workloads fit; the 96 DIMM slots allow non-disruptive expansion up to 12 TB later when demand grows.
