DELL PowerEdge R940 3U rack server 4x Xeon Gold 5120 2.2GHz 14-core 768GB DDR4 8x 800GB SSD H730P

Four-socket Xeon Gold server

The Dell PowerEdge R940 is a 3U rack-mount server system equipped with four Intel Xeon Gold 5120 processors, each running at 2.2 GHz with 14 cores. It ships with 768 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 24 modules and eight 800 GB SATA solid-state drives managed by a PERC H730P RAID controller. Dual 1600 W redundant power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management are included.

Virtualisation hosts and database clusters

This configuration suits organisations that need high core counts and large memory capacity in a compact 3U form factor for virtualisation, in-memory databases or enterprise applications. The four-processor design maximises licensed-core density while the included 10 GbE SFP+ ports handle high-throughput networking. Buyers who require more than 48 DIMM slots or a different drive interface should evaluate alternative platforms.

768 GB DDR4 registered ECC memory

The installed 768 GB of DDR4 2400 MHz registered ECC memory across 24 slots determines whether this server meets your workload’s memory footprint and error-correction requirements. The system supports up to 6 TB total capacity using all 48 slots, so current capacity can be expanded if the application demands grow beyond the factory configuration.
