SKU CH-7MF7-1TKQY

A 2U rack server with dual 10-core Xeon processors at 2.2 GHz, 64 GB DDR4 memory, a PERC H330 controller, and twelve 3.5-inch 4 TB SATA drives

  • Dual 10-core Xeon Silver 4114 CPUs at 2.2 GHz with 3.0 GHz turbo
  • 64 GB DDR4-2400 ECC memory in four 16 GB modules
  • PERC H330 controller managing twelve 3.5-inch 4 TB SATA drives at 7.2K rpm

  • Two 750 W platinum-efficiency power supplies for redundant operation

2U Rack Server for Virtualisation and Storage

The Dell PowerEdge R540 is a 2U rack-mount server built for growing business environments. It runs two Intel Xeon Silver 4114 processors at 2.2GHz with a 3.0GHz turbo, each providing ten cores for a total of twenty threads. Sixty-four gigabytes of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory support virtualisation and database workloads. Twelve 3.5-inch drive bays hold 4TB 7.2K SATA drives managed by a PERC H330 12Gb/s controller.

Suited to capacity-focused workloads.

This configuration suits organisations that need large raw capacity for backups, archives or software-defined storage clusters. The dual 750W platinum power supplies and iDRAC 9 Express remote management simplify data-centre deployment. Buyers who require solid-state performance or GPU acceleration should evaluate other platforms. The front bezel and ready rails are not included, so rack mounting hardware must be sourced separately.

Twelve 3.5-inch bays with H330 RAID

The defining specification is the twelve 3.5-inch bays populated with 4TB SATA drives behind a PERC H330 controller. This delivers forty-eight terabytes of redundant storage in a 2U chassis. If the application demands more bays, faster media or a different RAID feature set, this server will not meet the requirement.

Questions about this item

How do I verify both Xeon Silver 4114 processors are detected and all 64 GB DDR4-2400 memory is healthy after powering on?

Open the iDRAC 9 Express web interface or watch the POST screen; both will list each 10 core CPU at 2.2 GHz and confirm the 4x 16 GB ECC registered DIMMs are present and error-free.

Which items ship with the server and which must be sourced separately?

The chassis includes 2x Xeon Silver 4114 CPUs, 64 GB DDR4, PERC H330 controller, 12x 4 TB 3.5" 7.2K SATA drives, dual 1 GbE ports, iDRAC 9 Express, 2x 750 W platinum PSUs; front bezel and ready rails are not included.

Which drive count and capacity matches this configuration?

This unit is populated with 12x 4 TB 3.5" SATA hard drives and the PERC H330 controller; choose it when you need twelve bays of 4 TB each.
