Dell PowerEdge R930 4U server

The Dell PowerEdge R930 is a 4U rack server built for enterprise workloads that demand high compute density. It ships with four Intel Xeon E7-8890 v4 processors, each running at 2.2 GHz with 24 cores, providing 96 cores total. The system includes 384 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 48 DIMM slots. A PERC H330 controller manages four 600 GB 10K SAS drives in a 2.5-inch hot-plug bay.

Ideal for memory-intensive databases

This server suits organisations running in-memory databases such as SAP HANA, large-scale virtualisation clusters, or ERP and CRM platforms that benefit from up to 12 TB of DDR4 capacity. The four-socket design and 96 available DIMM slots support heavy memory footprints. Buyers needing more than 24 internal 2.5-inch drive bays or front-accessible NVMe PCIe SSD slots should evaluate other platforms, as this unit ships with only four drive bays populated.

Four Xeon E7-8890 v4 24-core CPUs installed

The decisive specification is the factory-installed quad-socket configuration with four Xeon E7-8890 v4 processors at 2.2 GHz, each delivering 24 cores and 3.4 GHz turbo frequency. This fixed 96-core total determines whether the server matches the licensing and threading requirements of the target application. Memory can be expanded to 12 TB using the remaining 48 slots, but the CPU count cannot exceed four.

Questions about this item

What does the 3.4 GHz turbo frequency mean for real workloads on this server?

Each of the four Xeon E7-8890 v4 processors can boost from 2.2 GHz up to 3.4 GHz when thermal headroom allows, giving short bursts of extra speed for latency-sensitive tasks.

What does the PERC H330 12Gb/s SAS controller cap in practice?

The H330 runs at 12Gb/s SAS and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 and 50 across the four installed 600GB 10K SAS drives.

What does the 4U chassis need to fit in a standard rack?

The unit is a 4U rackmount server that includes Dell Ready Rails and a front bezel for installation in a standard rack.
