Four-processor Xeon server with 3 TB memory

The Dell PowerEdge R930 is a 4U rack server fitted with four Intel Xeon E7-8891 v4 processors, each running at 2.8 GHz with ten cores. It ships with 3 TB of DDR4 registered ECC memory installed across 96 slots. A PERC H330 controller manages four 1.8 TB 10K SAS drives in the front bays. Dual 10 Gb SFP+ and dual 1 GbE ports are provided by an Intel X520/I350 daughter card.

Suits memory-heavy workloads; not for GPU compute

This configuration targets databases, virtualization and analytics that benefit from large memory capacity and four-socket scaling. Buyers who need GPU acceleration, front-accessible NVMe drives or more than four 2.5-inch drive bays should look at a different platform. The Matrox G200 graphics controller only supports basic console output.

3 TB DDR4 installed across 96 DIMM slots

The system arrives with 96 × 32 GB modules populating every slot, delivering 3 TB at 2400 MHz. Maximum supported capacity is 12 TB, so any further expansion requires replacing existing DIMMs. This density makes the server a candidate for in-memory databases and heavy virtualization consolidation.

Questions about this item

How should I choose between the 1.8 TB SAS drives and larger capacity options for the 2.5 inch bays?

The server ships with four 1.8 TB 10K SAS drives; the chassis supports up to 24 hot-plug 2.5 inch SAS or SATA drives plus eight front NVMe PCIe SSDs for higher capacity or speed.

What does the 2.8 GHz base clock with 3.5 GHz turbo mean for real workloads on the four Xeon E7-8891 v4 processors?

Each of the four 10-core Xeon E7-8891 v4 CPUs runs at 2.8 GHz base and can boost to 3.5 GHz, giving 40 cores total for high single-thread and multi-thread performance.

How does the PERC H330 12 Gb/s SAS controller limit RAID performance with the installed drives?

The H330 supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 and 50 at 12 Gb/s SAS, so the four 1.8 TB 10K drives are capped by the controller's 12 Gb/s link and RAID overhead.
