DELL PowerEdge R940 3U rack server 4x Xeon Gold 5120 2.2GHz 14-core 512GB DDR4 H730P

Four-socket Xeon Gold 5120 platform

The Dell PowerEdge R940 is a 3U rack server built for enterprise workloads that demand four physical processors. It ships with four Intel Xeon Gold 5120 CPUs, each running at 2.2 GHz with 14 cores and a 3.2 GHz turbo frequency. The system targets organisations running large databases, virtualisation clusters or in-memory analytics where maximum core count per chassis is the priority.

512 GB DDR4 registered ECC memory

Installed memory totals 512 GB across sixteen 32 GB DDR4 2400 MHz registered ECC modules, occupying sixteen of the forty-eight available DIMM slots. This capacity supports dense virtual-machine consolidation and large working sets without swapping. The platform can scale to 6 TB when all slots are populated, but the current configuration is fixed at the stated amount.

PERC H730P controller and quad-port networking

The Dell PERC H730P 2 GB controller provides hardware RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through for the eight 2.5-inch SAS/SATA drive bays, which ship empty with trays installed. A daughter card adds two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports for flexible network topology. iDRAC 9 Enterprise, dual 1600 W platinum power supplies, rails and bezel complete the bundle.
