FAQ

What environments is the Dell PowerEdge R930 suited for?

The Dell PowerEdge R930 is built for demanding enterprise environments: large-scale virtualisation, databases, data warehousing, SAP HANA, and business-critical applications. With four Intel Xeon E7 processor sockets and support for up to 6 TB of RAM, it handles workloads that push other servers to their limits.

What is the maximum RAM capacity of the Dell PowerEdge R930?

The R930 supports up to 6 TB of DDR4 ECC memory. This makes it one of the few rack servers capable of running in-memory databases - such as SAP HANA - without the need to invest in far more expensive dedicated platforms.

How many drives can the Dell PowerEdge R930 accommodate?

The 2.5" bay configuration offers 24 SFF drive slots. The server supports SATA, SAS, and NVMe drives, enabling both hybrid and all-flash storage arrays. It also includes the H730P RAID controller, providing flexible hardware RAID configuration options.

What is iDRAC 8 Enterprise and what does it do in the R930?

iDRAC 8 Enterprise is a built-in remote server management module. It provides access to hardware health monitoring, remote restart, firmware updates, and a system console - even if the operating system has stopped responding. In the configurations available from Hardware Direct, iDRAC 8 Enterprise is already included and requires no additional licences.

Is the Dell PowerEdge R930 suitable for high-availability environments?

Yes. The R930 features four independent redundant power supplies, ECC RAM support, hot-swap drives, and advanced system event logging. It is designed for environments where downtime is simply not an option - production data centres, ERP systems, and critical infrastructure.

Can I buy a used Dell PowerEdge R930 from Hardware Direct?

Yes, Hardware Direct offers both new and refurbished Dell PowerEdge R930 servers. Every configuration is ready to ship and covered by a warranty. If you need a specific set of components, the Hardware Direct team can help you find the right option before you purchase.
