Mission-critical compute density

The Dell PowerEdge R930 is a 4U rack server built for enterprise workloads that demand maximum processor cores and memory capacity in a single chassis. Four Intel Xeon E7-8891 v4 10-core processors running at 2.8 GHz with 3.5 GHz turbo deliver 40 total cores for heavy database, virtualization and analytics tasks. It ships with 1.5 TB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 48 DIMM slots, leaving 48 slots open for expansion up to 12 TB.

Thermals and power in a 4U form factor

Four hot-plug 1100 W 80+ Platinum power supplies provide full redundancy while supporting the 40-core CPU configuration and 24 drive bays. The 4U height allows ample airflow across the processor and memory zones, keeping thermal headroom for sustained loads. iDRAC8 Enterprise enables remote thermal monitoring and power capping without requiring host OS access.

Storage and networking ready for expansion

The PERC H730P 2 GB controller manages 24 front-accessible 2.5-inch 600 GB 10K SAS drives with support for RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. A quad-port Intel X520/I350 daughter card adds two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ connections for flexible network topology. Rails and bezel are included for immediate rack integration, while the 96 DIMM slots and eight NVMe bays remain available for future growth.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 48 DDR4 DIMMs and what is the common mistake?

Populate all 96 slots in matched sets of 48 identical 32 GB DDR4 2400 MHz registered ECC modules per processor; the step people get wrong is mixing capacities or speeds across channels, which prevents the system from posting.

Which components will need replacement first under continuous operation?

The 24 enterprise 600 GB 10 K SAS drives and the PERC H730P controller battery are the primary wear items; drives should be monitored for SMART errors and the battery replaced when the controller reports degraded cache protection.

What thermal or power limit appears first when all four Xeon E7-8891 v4 CPUs run at 3.5 GHz turbo?

The four 1100 W platinum supplies deliver 350 W per processor at peak turbo; sustained 3.5 GHz on all 40 cores can hit the chassis cooling ceiling before the PSUs saturate, triggering automatic clock throttling.
