Quad-socket Xeon E7-8891 v4 server

The Dell PowerEdge R930 is a 4U rack server fitted with four 10-core Xeon E7-8891 v4 processors running at 2.8 GHz. It ships with 768 GB of DDR4 memory across 48 DIMM slots and a PERC H730P controller managing four 600 GB 10K SAS drives. Quad-port networking with dual 10 Gb SFP+ and dual 1 GbE is included alongside iDRAC8 Enterprise remote management.

Suits memory-heavy workloads; not for GPU compute

This configuration targets in-memory databases, virtualization density and enterprise ERP or CRM platforms that scale across 96 cores and 768 GB of RAM. Buyers needing GPU acceleration, NVMe boot drives or more than four 2.5-inch drive bays should evaluate alternative platforms. The fixed four-drive layout also limits local storage expansion without external enclosures.

Four 600 GB SAS drives on H730P

The PERC H730P 2 GB controller presents the four installed 600 GB 10K SAS disks with RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 support plus pass-through mode. This determines usable capacity, redundancy options and whether the array can saturate the 12 Gb/s SAS backbone for the intended workload.

Questions about this item

How many drive bays remain free to add more 2.5" SAS drives later?

The 4U chassis supports up to 24 hot-plug 2.5" drives; four bays are occupied by the installed 600 GB 10K SAS drives, leaving 20 bays available for expansion.

With four 1100 W platinum power supplies installed, what is the first limit reached during sustained full-load operation?

The four 1100 W 80+ Platinum supplies provide redundant power; thermal limits from the four 10-core Xeon E7-8891 v4 processors and 48 DDR4 DIMMs will be reached before the power subsystem saturates.

How loud are the system fans when the server runs 24/7 in a 4U rack?

The 4U PowerEdge R930 uses high-volume redundant fans to cool four 10-core CPUs, 768 GB DDR4, and four 1100 W PSUs; expect data-centre noise levels unsuitable for office environments.
