DELL PowerEdge R930 4U rack server 4x Xeon E7-8890 v4 2.2GHz 24-core 768GB DDR4 4x 1.92TB SSD H330

Mission-Critical Compute Platform

The Dell PowerEdge R930 is a 4U rack server configured with four Intel Xeon E7-8890 v4 processors, each running at 2.2 GHz with 24 cores. It ships with 768 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 48 DIMM slots. This system targets organisations running large-scale databases, virtualisation clusters or ERP suites that demand high core counts and memory capacity in a single chassis.

Enterprise Storage and Management

Four 1.92 TB SATA SSDs connect to a Dell PERC H330 controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 and 50 for redundancy or performance. Networking is handled by an Intel X520/I350 daughter card providing two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports. Remote administration uses iDRAC 8 Enterprise, while four 1100 W 80+ Platinum power supplies deliver redundant power. Ready rails and a front bezel are included for standard rack installation.

Scale-Up Replacement for Distributed Clusters

This configuration replaces racks of smaller two-socket servers when workloads require a single memory space up to 12 TB and 96 total cores. The jump is justified for in-memory analytics, SAP HANA or Oracle deployments that exceed the capacity of scale-out designs. It is not suited for buyers who need GPU acceleration, front-accessible NVMe bays beyond the existing storage controller, or workloads that favour many smaller nodes over a single large domain.
