Dell PowerEdge R540 2U 8 Bay 3.5" 2x Xeon Gold 6130 2.1GHz 16 Core 128GB DDR4 HBA330 8x 4TB 7.2K SAS 2x 750W

Dual Xeon Gold 6130 2U Server

The Dell PowerEdge R540 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors. Each CPU provides 16 cores running at 2.1 GHz with a 3.7 GHz turbo frequency. The system ships with 128 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across eight modules. It targets virtualization, database hosting and file serving workloads.

HBA330 Storage with Eight Drive Bays

The chassis holds eight 3.5 inch drive bays populated with 4 TB 7.2K SAS hard drives. A Dell PERC HBA330 12 Gb/s controller manages the SAS and SATA storage without RAID overhead. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies provide redundant hot-swap power. The server includes iDRAC 9 Enterprise for remote management and ready rails for rack installation.

Sustained Multi-Core Throughput

Thirty-two total cores and 128 GB of memory maintain consistent performance during extended virtualization or database tasks. The HBA330 controller delivers steady SAS bandwidth for sequential and random I/O patterns. Redundant power supplies and enterprise-class drives support continuous operation without thermal throttling. The platform scales to 384 GB memory if workloads grow beyond the installed capacity.
