DELL PowerEdge R930 4U rack server 4× Xeon E7-8891 v4 2.8 GHz 10-core 384GB DDR4

Built for in-memory scale

The Dell PowerEdge R930 is a 4U rack server populated with four Xeon E7-8891 v4 processors running at 2.80 GHz, each providing ten cores for a total of forty threads. It ships with 384 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across forty-eight 8 GB modules and includes a PERC H330 controller with four 2.5-inch drive trays, dual 10 Gb SFP+ and dual 1 GbE network ports, iDRAC8 Enterprise, four 1100 W platinum power supplies, rails and a bezel.

Suits memory-heavy consolidation

This configuration targets workloads that demand large coherent memory pools such as SAP HANA, Oracle, SQL Server or dense virtualisation where the 12 TB maximum capacity across ninety-six DIMM slots provides headroom. Buyers needing more than four sockets, GPU acceleration, front-accessible NVMe bays or a smaller chassis footprint should evaluate other platforms.

Memory ceiling decides fit

The decisive specification is the 12 TB DDR4 limit across ninety-six slots, which determines whether the system can hold the intended dataset without resorting to slower storage tiers.
