DELL PowerEdge R940 3U Rack Server 4x Xeon Gold 5120 2.2GHz 14-Core 128GB DDR4 2x 400GB 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 128 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 48 available slots and includes a Dell PERC H730P storage controller with 2 GB cache.

Suits dense virtualisation and database workloads

This configuration targets organisations running memory-intensive virtualisation clusters, in-memory databases or high-transaction ERP systems that benefit from four-socket scaling and up to 6 TB maximum memory capacity. Buyers who need more than two 400 GB SATA SSDs or additional drive bays beyond the eight 2.5-inch slots should evaluate other platforms.

Four Xeon Gold 5120 CPUs installed

The server arrives fully populated with the maximum of four processors, so no further CPU upgrades are possible. The LGA 3647 socket and Intel C620 chipset define the platform boundary, while the PERC H730P controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 for the installed SATA SSDs.
