DELL PowerEdge R940 3U Rack Server 4x Xeon Gold 5120 2.2GHz 14C 64GB DDR4 8x 300GB SAS H730P

Four-socket Xeon Gold server for memory-heavy

The Dell PowerEdge R940 packs four Xeon Gold 5120 processors at 2.2 GHz with 14 cores each and 64 GB of DDR4 ECC memory in a 3U rack chassis. It includes a PERC H730P RAID controller, eight 300 GB 10K SAS drives, quad-port 1/10 GbE networking and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management. Dual 1600 W platinum power supplies and rails ship with the unit.

Suited for dense compute.

This system targets organisations running memory-intensive databases, virtualisation clusters or real-time analytics that benefit from four sockets and up to 6 TB of DDR4. Buyers who need GPU acceleration, more than eight drive bays or single-thread frequency above 3.2 GHz turbo should evaluate other platforms.

PERC H730P RAID controller with 2 GB cache

The installed H730P supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode, backed by a battery for write-cache protection. It manages the eight 300 GB SAS drives and any additional SAS or SATA devices you add to the 2.5-inch bays.
