Purpose-Built 4U Server

This Dell PowerEdge R930 is a 4U rack-mount server designed for memory-intensive enterprise workloads. It ships with four Intel Xeon E7-8891 v4 10-core processors running at 2.8 GHz and 384 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 48 populated slots. The system targets organisations running large-scale databases, virtualisation clusters or analytics platforms that demand high core counts and massive memory capacity in a single chassis.

Fit and Limits

Buyers needing dense compute and large memory footprints in a 4U form factor will find this configuration suitable. The four-processor layout and 96 total DIMM slots provide headroom for growth up to 12 TB of DDR4. Teams requiring GPU acceleration, front-accessible NVMe drives beyond the 2.5-inch SATA bays, or a smaller rack footprint should evaluate alternative platforms. The Matrox G200 graphics with 8 MB video memory supports only basic console output.

Deciding Specification

The installed storage consists of 24 SATA SSDs at 960 GB each, managed by a PERC H730P 2 GB controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. This all-flash array delivers high random-read performance for transactional databases and virtualised storage tiers. If the workload demands NVMe latency or a different drive interface, the 2.5-inch SATA backplane and controller combination will not meet that requirement.

Highlights

  • 40 cores at 2.8 GHz with 3.5 GHz turbo for compute-heavy workloads
  • 384 GB DDR4 ECC across 48 slots enables large in-memory datasets
  • 24 × 960 GB SATA SSDs on H730P RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 for fast redundant storage
  • Dual 10 GbE SFP+ plus dual 1 GbE via X520/I350 for flexible networking

Questions about this item

How many DDR4 DIMM slots remain free for future memory upgrades?

The system has 96 total slots and 48 are occupied by the installed 8 GB modules, leaving 48 slots available for expansion up to the 12 TB maximum.

Will the PERC H730P controller become a throughput bottleneck with 24 SATA SSDs?

The H730P provides a 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA interface, so the controller bandwidth exceeds the combined SATA 6 Gb/s limit of the installed drives.

How much power do the four 1100 W supplies draw when the server runs at full load all day?

Each supply is rated at 1100 W with 80+ Platinum efficiency, and the four units operate in a redundant configuration to share the load.
