Mission-critical 4-socket server

The Dell PowerEdge R940 is a 3U rack server built for mission-critical workloads. Four Intel Xeon Gold 6134 processors deliver 32 cores at 3.2GHz with 3.7GHz turbo. 512GB of DDR4 2666MHz registered ECC memory fills 16 of 48 slots. A PERC H730P controller manages eight 1.2TB 10K SAS drives.

Suited for dense CPU scaling.

This platform suits organisations that need maximum core count in a 3U form factor with redundant 1600W power supplies. Quad-port networking provides two 1GbE and two 10Gb SFP+ links. iDRAC 9 Enterprise enables full remote management. Buyers who require GPU compute density or a smaller 1U or 2U footprint should evaluate alternative platforms.

PERC H730P RAID flexibility decides fit

The PERC H730P 2GB controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through modes with battery-backed cache. Eight 2.5-inch SAS bays are populated with 1.2TB 10K drives. Organisations needing different drive counts, SSD tiers or external enclosure support must verify the controller and backplane match their storage topology.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 512 GB DDR4 2666 MHz configuration or a smaller memory kit?

The server comes with 512 GB DDR4 2666 MHz ECC registered memory across 16 slots; the board supports up to 6 TB in 48 slots, so you can expand later if workloads grow.

What does the 3.2 GHz Xeon Gold 6134 speed mean for actual throughput?

Each of the four 8-core Xeon Gold 6134 CPUs runs at 3.2 GHz base with 3.7 GHz turbo, giving 32 cores total for parallel workloads such as virtualization or databases.

Does the PERC H730P 12 Gb/s SAS controller limit drive performance?

The H730P handles 12 Gb/s SAS and SATA with RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through; the eight 1.2 TB 10K SAS drives connect at full controller speed.
