Four-socket 2U rack server
The Dell PowerEdge R830 fits four Intel E5-4669v4 processors, each with 22 cores at 2.2GHz and 55M cache, into a 2U chassis. It ships with 64GB of DDR4 memory in four 16GB modules and two 1.92TB SATA SSDs behind an H730 RAID controller. iDRAC8 Enterprise provides remote management.
Upgrade from smaller dual-socket boxes
Moving to four sockets doubles the core count and memory channels compared with typical two-socket servers, so the jump pays off when workloads scale across many threads or need large local memory pools. The 730 controller supports RAID levels that protect the installed SSDs while leaving six 2.5-inch bays free for future capacity.
Suits virtualisation hosts and database nodes
Organisations running hypervisors or in-memory databases that benefit from high core density and redundant 1600W power supplies will match this platform well. Buyers who want more storage bays than the eight 2.5-inch slots provide, or who need newer instruction-set extensions not present in this processor generation, should look at something else.

Questions about this item
What rack depth and rail kit does the 2U R830 chassis require?
The server is a 2U rack unit and the listing confirms that rails are included for mounting.
How are the four E5-4669v4 processors and the 64GB DDR4 memory installed, and what step is often missed?
The four CPUs and four 16GB DDR4 modules are pre-installed; the step often missed is applying the correct firmware update for the 22-core processors before first boot.
Which drive bays and controller will need attention when the 1.92TB SATA SSDs reach end of life?
The two SSDs occupy two of the eight 2.5-inch bays behind the H730 RAID controller; replacement drives must be 2.5-inch SATA models compatible with the H730.
