Four-socket Xeon server

The Dell PowerEdge R930 is a 4U rack server equipped with four Intel Xeon E7-8867 v4 processors, each running at 2.4 GHz with 16 cores. It ships with 1.5 TB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 48 modules and a PERC H730P RAID controller with 2 GB cache. Twenty-four 1.8 TB 10K SAS drives populate the 2.5-inch bays.

Check power and rack space

Verify that your facility can supply four 1100 W power supplies and accommodate a 4U rack height with the included rails. The motherboard uses LGA 2011 sockets and the Intel C602J chipset with 96 DIMM slots for future expansion. Network connectivity relies on a quad-port daughter card providing two 1 GbE and two 10 GbE SFP+ ports, so confirm compatible switching and cabling.

Suits memory-heavy consolidation

This configuration targets organisations running large in-memory databases, virtualisation clusters or ERP workloads that benefit from 1.5 TB of RAM and high core density. Buyers who need more storage bays, GPU acceleration or a smaller chassis should evaluate other platforms.

Questions about this item

Does the R930 arrive with the 48 memory modules and 24 hard drives already installed, or must I purchase and fit them myself?

The server ships with 48 32 GB DDR4 modules totalling 1.5 TB and 24 1.8 TB 10K SAS drives pre-installed in the 24 bay chassis, so no separate memory or drive purchase is required.

With four Xeon E7-8867 v4 CPUs already fitted, is there any processor upgrade path left on this unit?

All four LGA 2011 sockets are populated with 16-core 2.4 GHz E7-8867 v4 processors, reaching the R930's maximum of four CPUs, so no further processor upgrades are possible.

What sustained throughput can the H730P controller deliver to the 24 SAS drives in a RAID 10 array?

The PERC H730P 2 GB controller drives the 24 1.8 TB 10K SAS disks at 12 Gb/s per port and supports RAID 10 for combined read performance and redundancy.
