2. Product Overview

The Dell PowerEdge M830 is a full-height server module (blade) designed for the PowerEdge M1000e and PowerEdge VRTX enclosures . It is a four-socket platform built to deliver high-density compute, memory, and storage resources for demanding workloads such as databases, technical computing, and virtualization .

Key architectural highlights:

  • Processor scalability: Supports up to four Intel Xeon E5-4600 v4 or v3 processors, enabling up to 88 processor cores per blade when fully populated .

  • Memory capacity: 48 DIMM slots supporting DDR4 RDIMM and LRDIMM, with a maximum memory capacity of 3 TB when four processors are installed .

  • Storage flexibility: Supports multiple drive backplane configurations, including up to four 2.5-inch hot-swappable drives or up to twelve 1.8-inch SAS SSDs .

  • I/O expansion: Four PCIe mezzanine card slots (PCIe Gen 3) provide network and fabric connectivity options .

  • Fabric integration: Mezzanine slots map to Fabrics B and C for flexible I/O module matching in the enclosure .

The M830 is positioned as a compute-intensive blade for organizations requiring maximum core density and memory footprint within a standard blade enclosure footprint .
