PowerEdge R930 4U four-socket server

The Dell PowerEdge R930 is a 4U rack-mount server populated with four Intel Xeon E7-8890 v4 processors running at 2.2 GHz with 24 cores each. It ships with 384 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 48 modules and twenty-four 960 GB SATA SSDs managed by a PERC H730P 2 GB controller. Four 1100 W platinum power supplies, iDRAC8 Enterprise, a quad-port 1/10 GbE network daughter card, rails and bezel complete the unit.

Suited for dense in-memory

This configuration targets organisations running large databases, ERP suites or heavily consolidated virtual machines that benefit from 96 total cores and 384 GB of fast memory. The 24-drive bay layout and H730P RAID controller support RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 for local redundancy. Buyers who need more than 384 GB of installed memory or who require GPU acceleration for compute tasks should evaluate other platforms.

Four Xeon E7-8890 v4 CPUs deliver 96 cores at 2.2

The processor choice defines the server's throughput ceiling for multi-threaded applications. Each chip provides 24 cores with a 3.4 GHz turbo frequency and fits the LGA 2011 socket on the Intel C602J chipset. The 96 DIMM slots allow future expansion up to 12 TB of DDR4 when workloads grow beyond the factory-installed 384 GB.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 24 960GB SATA SSDs and what step is often missed?

Slide each 2.5" drive into the front hot-plug bays until the latch clicks; the step often missed is creating the virtual disks in the PERC H730P BIOS before the OS sees any volume.

What maintenance will the 384GB DDR4 memory need later?

The 48 registered ECC DIMMs require no scheduled maintenance; only a failed module would need replacement, and the system will flag the specific slot via iDRAC8.

What limit appears first when all four Xeon E7-8890 v4 CPUs run at 3.4GHz Turbo continuously?

The four 1100W Platinum power supplies set the thermal and current ceiling; sustained 3.4GHz on 96 cores will hit the platform power budget before CPU temperature throttles.
