DELL PowerEdge R930 4U rack server 4x Xeon E7-8891 v4 2.8GHz 10-core 3TB DDR4 24x 600GB SAS

Quad-socket Xeon E7-8891 v4 server

The Dell PowerEdge R930 is a 4U rack server equipped with four Intel Xeon E7-8891 v4 processors running at 2.8 GHz with a 3.5 GHz turbo frequency. Each processor provides ten cores for a total of forty cores across the system. It ships with 3 TB of DDR4 registered ECC memory installed across ninety-six slots. The chassis holds twenty-four 2.5-inch 600 GB 10K SAS drives on a PERC H330 controller.

For memory-heavy workloads needing four sockets

This system suits environments that require large memory capacity and four-socket compute density for databases, virtualization or analytics. The ninety-six DIMM slots allow expansion up to 12 TB. Buyers who need GPU acceleration or front-accessible NVMe PCIe SSDs should look elsewhere, as the configuration includes only a Matrox G200 graphics controller with 8 MB video memory and the installed drives are SAS hard disks.

3 TB DDR4 registered ECC memory installed

The decisive specification is the 3 TB of DDR4 2400 MHz registered ECC memory populated across all ninety-six slots. This determines immediate readiness for memory-intensive applications and defines the remaining upgrade headroom to the 12 TB maximum. The four 1100 W 80+ Platinum power supplies and iDRAC8 Enterprise remote management complete the baseline configuration.
