Built for heavy database workloads

This 4U Dell PowerEdge R930 arrives with four Intel Xeon E7-8867 v4 processors, each running at 2.4 GHz with 16 cores. It is aimed at organisations running large in-memory databases, virtualization clusters or analytics platforms that demand high core counts and massive memory capacity in a single chassis.

Suited for memory-bound consolidation.

The 1.5 TB of DDR4 registered ECC memory spread across 48 modules supports workloads that keep terabytes of data in RAM. Buyers needing GPU acceleration, NVMe boot drives or a smaller rack footprint should look at other platforms because this configuration prioritises CPU and memory density over accelerator slots or compact form factors.

24-bay 2.5-inch SATA/SAS backplane with H730P RAID

Twenty-four front-accessible bays are populated with 960 GB SATA SSDs behind a PERC H730P 2 GB controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. This storage layout decides whether the server fits a given dataset size and redundancy requirement without adding external enclosures.

Questions about this item

What does the 1.5TB DDR4 memory mean for workloads running on this server?

The installed 1.5TB across 48 registered ECC modules supports large in-memory databases, dense virtualization and analytics without swapping to disk.

How does the PERC H730P 12Gb/s SAS/SATA controller limit the 24 installed 960GB SSDs in practice?

The controller caps each drive at SATA 6Gb/s and provides RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 plus pass-through, with a 2GB cache backed by battery.

What physical space and mounting hardware does the 4U chassis require in a rack?

The server occupies 4U of rack height, includes ready rails for tool-less mounting and ships with a front bezel for a finished appearance.
