Enterprise compute density

The Dell PowerEdge R930 is a 4U rack server fitted with four Intel Xeon E7-8867 v4 processors, each running at 2.4 GHz with 16 cores. It targets organisations that run large-scale databases, virtualisation clusters or analytics workloads requiring high core counts and memory capacity in a single chassis.

Memory and storage headroom

The system ships with 768 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 48 slots, leaving 48 additional slots to reach the 12 TB maximum. Twenty-four 1.8 TB 10K SAS drives provide raw capacity through the PERC H330 controller, which supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 and 50 for redundancy or performance.

Interface and expansion limits

The H330 controller operates at 12 Gb/s SAS and SATA speeds, while the Intel X520/I350 daughter card adds two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports. The 4U chassis fills its 24 front drive bays with the installed drives, so further internal storage would require external enclosures. iDRAC 8 Enterprise handles remote management independently of the operating system.

Questions about this item

Will the four Xeon E7-8867 v4 processors and 768 GB DDR4 memory work with my existing LGA 2011 motherboards?

The server uses four Xeon E7-8867 v4 processors in LGA 2011 sockets with 768 GB DDR4 registered ECC memory. Each processor has 16 cores at 2.4 GHz with 3.30 GHz turbo. The system supports up to 12 TB total memory across 96 slots.

How can I verify the PERC H330 controller and 24 SAS drives are operating correctly after installation?

Use iDRAC8 Enterprise remote management to monitor the PERC H330 RAID controller status and the 24 x 1.8 TB 10K SAS drives. The controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50. Check drive health, array status and controller firmware version through the iDRAC interface.

Which components are included and what must I source separately for the 24-bay 2.5-inch chassis?

Included: 4U chassis with 24 drive bays, four Xeon E7-8867 v4 processors, 768 GB DDR4 (48 x 16 GB), PERC H330 controller, 24 x 1.8 TB SAS HDDs, Intel X520/I350 quad-port network card (2x 1GbE, 2x 10Gb SFP+), iDRAC8 Enterprise, four 1100 W 80+ Platinum PSUs, ready rails, front bezel. No additional components listed.
