DELL PowerEdge R540 rack server 2x Xeon Gold 6130 2.1GHz 16C 64GB DDR4 8x 3.5" HBA330

Dual-socket Xeon server for virtualization

The PowerEdge R540 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors, each running at 2.1 GHz with 16 cores and a 3.7 GHz turbo frequency. The system ships with 64 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across four modules and supports a maximum capacity of 384 GB across sixteen slots. It is designed for virtualization, database hosting, and business-critical applications requiring multi-threaded compute density.

Sustained multi-core throughput

Under continuous load the dual 16-core CPUs maintain high clock speeds across all thirty-two threads, while the two 750 W platinum-efficiency power supplies operate in redundant hot-swap mode to prevent downtime. Intelligent cooling manages thermal output during extended virtualization or database sessions without throttling, and the HBA330 controller provides 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA connectivity for consistent storage I/O.

Eight hot-swap drive bays

The chassis includes eight 3.5-inch SAS/SATA drive trays ready for hot-swap installation, allowing storage expansion without service interruption. A front bezel and ready rails are included for standard rack mounting. Integrated iDRAC9 Enterprise enables remote firmware updates, power cycling, and hardware monitoring over a dedicated management network, reducing the need for physical access.
