DELL PowerEdge R540 2U 8x3.5" 2x Xeon Gold 5118 32GB 8x8TB H330 iDRAC9 Enterprise

2U Rack Server with 64TB SAS Storage

The Dell PowerEdge R540 is a 2U rack server equipped with dual Intel Xeon Gold 5118 processors running at 2.3 GHz with 12 cores each. It includes 32 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 16 DIMM slots and a PERC H330 storage controller managing eight 8 TB 7.2K SAS hard drives for 64 TB total capacity. Dual 750 W redundant power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management complete the platform.

Suits virtualization and file serving.

This configuration fits workloads such as virtualization, database hosting and file serving where high-capacity SAS storage and dual-socket compute are required. The eight 3.5-inch bays are populated with 7.2K rotational drives, so environments that demand low-latency solid-state storage or GPU-accelerated compute will not be served by this chassis.

PERC H330 RAID controller with eight 8 TB SAS drives

The Dell PERC H330 controller provides 12 Gb/s SAS connectivity and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 and 50 plus pass-through mode. It manages the eight installed 8 TB 7.2K SAS drives, delivering 64 TB of raw capacity. This controller and drive combination determines whether the storage performance and redundancy meet the target application.
