Built for In-Memory Scale

This Dell PowerEdge R930 is a 4U rack server equipped with four Intel Xeon E7-8890 v4 processors, each running at 2.2 GHz with 24 cores. It ships with 1.5 TB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 48 DIMM slots and four 1.8 TB 10K SAS hard drives on a PERC H330 controller. The system includes an Intel X520/I350 network daughter card, iDRAC8 Enterprise, four 1100 W platinum power supplies, rails and a front bezel.

Suits Consolidation, Not General Purpose

Organisations running SAP HANA, large SQL instances or dense virtualisation clusters will use the 96-core count and 12 TB memory ceiling. Buyers who need GPU acceleration, direct-attached NVMe capacity beyond the eight front bays, or a smaller 1U or 2U form factor should evaluate other platforms. The Matrox G200 graphics and single storage controller also limit use cases that demand high-performance video or dual-controller redundancy.

Deciding Spec — 1.5 TB DDR4 Installed

The 1.5 TB of DDR4 2400 MHz registered ECC memory determines whether this server matches the workload immediately. Expanding to the 12 TB maximum requires populating the remaining 48 slots with compatible modules. If the application fits within the current 1.5 TB, the system is ready to deploy; if it exceeds that figure, additional memory procurement becomes the critical path.

Questions about this item

How often do the four 1.8 TB SAS drives in RAID 0/1/5/10/50 need replacement?

The four 1.8 TB SAS drives are enterprise 10K units; typical replacement follows your own monitoring and workload rather than a fixed interval.

What limits sustained compute throughput first — the 2.2 GHz base clock or the 1100 W Platinum PSUs?

Sustained throughput is capped by the 2.2 GHz base frequency of the four Xeon E7-8890 v4 CPUs before the 1100 W 80+ Platinum supplies reach their limit.

How loud and hot does the 4U chassis get with all four 1100 W PSUs running continuously?

Four 1100 W 80+ Platinum PSUs and four 24-core Xeons at 2.2 GHz base produce significant heat; expect data-centre grade fan noise and require proper rack airflow.
