Mission-Critical 3U Rack Server

The Dell PowerEdge R940 is a four-socket rack server built for mission-critical workloads and real-time decision making. It delivers scalable performance in a compact 3U chassis with redundant 1600W platinum power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management included.

Four-Socket Density vs Smaller Footprints

Organisations needing maximum core count and memory capacity in a single 3U enclosure will benefit from the four Xeon Gold 6134 processors and forty-eight DDR4 slots supporting up to 6TB. Teams requiring a smaller 2U footprint, fewer processor sockets or lower power draw should evaluate other platforms.

Four Xeon Gold 6134 Processors Installed

The system ships with four Intel Xeon Gold 6134 3.2GHz 8-core CPUs already installed, reaching the maximum of four supported processors. This fixed four-socket configuration determines the peak compute density available without adding another chassis.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 1.2TB SAS drives or a different capacity?

This unit ships with eight 1.2TB 10K SAS drives in the 2.5-inch bays and the PERC H730P controller supports SAS or SATA drives for other capacities.

What does the 3.2GHz Xeon Gold 6134 speed mean once the server is running?

Each of the four Xeon Gold 6134 processors runs at 3.2GHz base frequency and can reach 3.7GHz turbo when workloads demand it.

What does the 12Gb/s SAS interface cap in practice?

The PERC H730P controller and the 1.2TB drives both operate at 12Gb/s SAS, so the storage path is limited to that 12Gb/s link speed.
