Dual Xeon Silver 4114 2U Rack Server

The Dell PowerEdge R540 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Silver 4114 processors, each delivering ten cores at 2.2 GHz with a 3.0 GHz turbo frequency. Sixty-four gigabytes of DDR4 registered ECC memory are installed across four modules. The system targets virtualization, database hosting, and file-serving workloads that require dual-socket compute density in a standard rack footprint.

PERC H730P RAID Controller With Battery

A Dell PERC H730P controller with two gigabytes of cache and a backup battery enables RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. Eight 3.5-inch drive trays accept both SATA and SAS drives, though no drives are included. The controller and tray combination lets administrators configure redundancy or capacity to match application demands without adding extra hardware.

Redundant 750W Platinum Power Supplies

Dual hot-swap 750 watt platinum-efficiency power supplies provide redundancy for continuous operation. Integrated iDRAC9 Enterprise delivers out-of-band remote management, monitoring and automation over a dedicated network interface. Ready rails and a front bezel are included for straightforward rack mounting and a finished appearance in standard cabinets.

Questions about this item

When will the PERC H730P RAID controller battery need replacement?

The PERC H730P includes a battery-backed cache module; typical service life is several years, after which the battery can be swapped without removing the controller.

What limits sustained compute throughput on the dual Xeon Silver 4114 CPUs?

The two 10-core Xeon Silver 4114 processors run at 2.2 GHz base with 3.0 GHz turbo; under continuous all-core load the base frequency is the limiting factor.

How much power do the redundant 750W platinum PSUs draw at full load?

Each supply is rated at 750 W platinum efficiency; the pair provides redundant power so the server continues running if one unit fails.
