Quad 10-Core Xeon Server

The Dell PowerEdge R930 is a 4U rack server fitted with four Intel Xeon E7-8891 v4 processors running at 2.80 GHz. Each CPU provides 10 cores, giving 40 cores in total for heavy multi-threaded workloads. The system ships with 3 TB of DDR4 ECC memory across 96 slots and supports up to 12 TB maximum capacity.

Memory-Bound Enterprise Workloads

This server suits organisations running in-memory databases, large-scale virtualisation or analytics that demand high core counts and massive RAM. Buyers who need GPU acceleration or more than 24 front drive bays should look at other platforms.

24-Bay 2.5" SAS/SATA Storage

The chassis holds 24 hot-plug 2.5-inch trays driven by a PERC H730P controller with 2 GB cache supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. This bay count and controller decide how much local storage you can install.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 3TB DDR4 configuration or add more memory later?

The system ships with 3TB across 96 DIMM slots and supports up to 12TB total, so you can expand using the remaining slots with DDR4 2400MHz registered ECC modules.

What does the 2.8GHz Xeon E7-8891 v4 speed mean for actual workloads?

Each of the four 10-core processors runs at 2.8GHz base with 3.5GHz turbo, giving 40 cores total for high-thread-count tasks such as in-memory databases and virtualization.

How does the PERC H730P 12Gb/s controller limit drive performance?

The controller handles 12Gb/s SAS and SATA with RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through, capping throughput at the controller’s 12Gb/s lane speed per drive.
