4-Socket 3U Rack Server

The Dell PowerEdge R940 is a 3U rack server fitted with four Intel Xeon Gold 6142 processors, each running at 2.60 GHz with 16 cores. It ships with 512 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 16 modules and includes a Dell PERC H730P 2 GB storage controller. Two 800 GB SATA SSDs are installed in the eight 2.5-inch drive bays.

Suited for Dense Multi-Threaded Workloads

This configuration targets environments that need high core counts and large memory capacity in a compact rack footprint, such as virtualisation hosts, in-memory databases or enterprise resource planning systems. Buyers who require GPU acceleration, single-thread optimisation or more than two pre-installed SSDs should evaluate alternative platforms.

512 GB DDR4 Registered ECC Memory

The system arrives with 512 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory installed in 16 of the 48 available slots, using the Intel C620 chipset. This capacity supports large working sets immediately, while the remaining slots allow expansion up to the platform maximum of 6 TB.
