Four-socket Xeon Gold 6130 server

The Dell PowerEdge R940 is a 3U rack server fitted with four Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors, each running at 2.1 GHz with 16 cores. It ships with 64 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across 48 slots. Two 400 GB SATA SSDs and a PERC H730P 2 GB controller handle storage duties.

Suits virtualisation clusters

Organisations running dense virtualisation, large databases or real-time analytics will benefit from the 64 physical cores and 6 TB maximum memory capacity. Buyers who need more than eight 2.5-inch drive bays or who require a different storage controller should consider alternative platforms.

PERC H730P controller with 2 GB cache

The installed Dell PERC H730P supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode on a 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA interface. This single component dictates which drive types, RAID levels and performance ceilings are available.

Questions about this item

What DDR4 memory speed and form factor must already be in the rack to populate the remaining 44 slots?

The system uses DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC DIMMs; 44 slots are still open for identical modules.

Can the PERC H730P controller manage the existing 2.5-inch SATA SSDs together with older SAS drives I want to keep?

Yes, the H730P supports mixed SAS and SATA drives in the same 8-bay backplane with RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 or pass-through.

How do I confirm the iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management is active after first boot?

During POST the iDRAC IP address appears on screen; browse to that address and log in with the default credentials to verify the Enterprise licence.
