Dual Xeon Gold 6130 server

The Dell PowerEdge R540 is a 2U rack server built for virtualization, database hosting and business-critical applications. Two Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors run at 2.1 GHz base and 3.7 GHz turbo with 16 cores each. The system ships with 64 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across 16 slots.

PERC H730P RAID controller

The Dell PERC H730P 2 GB controller manages eight 3.5-inch SAS drives through a 12 Gb/s interface. It supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. A battery-backed cache protects data during unexpected power loss.

64 TB raw capacity with room to grow

Eight enterprise 8 TB 7.2K SAS drives provide 64 TB of raw storage for file servers, backup targets or archival workloads. The chassis holds eight bays total, so capacity is maximized at this configuration. Memory scales to 1 TB when additional DDR4 modules are added.
