DELL PowerEdge R930 4U rack server 4x Xeon E7-8891 v4 2.8GHz 10-core 1.5TB DDR4 4x 600GB SAS H730P

Quad-socket Xeon E7-8891 v4 server

The Dell PowerEdge R930 is a 4U rack server populated with four Intel Xeon E7-8891 v4 processors. Each CPU runs at 2.8GHz with ten cores and reaches 3.5GHz turbo. The system ships with 1.5TB of DDR4-2400 registered ECC memory across 48 modules. It targets organisations that run large in-memory databases, virtualisation clusters or analytics workloads needing high core counts and massive memory capacity in a single chassis.

Sustained compute and memory bandwidth

Four sockets and 96 DIMM slots let the platform scale to 12TB of DDR4, so memory-intensive jobs stay in RAM instead of paging to disk. The PERC H730P controller with 2GB cache manages RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across the SAS backplane, keeping throughput steady during long rebuilds or heavy OLTP runs. Four 1100W 80+ Platinum power supplies share the load, maintaining stable voltage when all CPUs and drives operate at maximum utilisation for extended periods.

Enterprise chassis with integrated management

The 4U form factor holds four hot-plug 2.5-inch drive bays populated with 600GB 10K SAS disks, while the rear provides a quad-port network daughter card with two 1GbE and two 10Gb SFP+ links. iDRAC8 Enterprise gives remote KVM, power control and firmware updates over a dedicated port, so administrators can service the server without physical access. Sliding rails and a front bezel are included for standard rack mounting.
