Hey all, I am very new to the IT field so please forgive my ignorance in all this. I need help figuring out how dell servers (specifically poweredge) are named. As in I don't know if a 730 is better than a 810 or whatnot, or if there are general rules of thumb to judge the newness of a server based on the name standard.

I know with hp proliant they have generation numbers to help, but that's where my knowledge ends.

Thank you!

Also the 9xx servers like the R930 you mentioned are 4U.
