Dual Xeon Gold 6130 server with 256GB DDR4

This 2U rackmount system delivers dual Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors running at 2.1GHz with 16 cores each. A total of 256GB DDR4-2666 ECC registered memory is installed across eight 32GB modules. The platform targets virtualization, hyper-converged storage and cloud workloads needing high core density and memory capacity in a compact form factor.

Suits dense virtualization and storage clusters.

The server fits teams building virtualization hosts, software-defined storage nodes or cloud infrastructure where dual-socket CPU performance and 12 hot-swap drive bays matter. Buyers needing GPU acceleration, desktop-grade single-thread speed or workstation graphics should look elsewhere because the onboard Matrox G200 provides only basic video output and the expansion layout prioritises storage and networking cards.

12 hot-swap 3.5" bays

Storage connectivity centres on an LSI MegaRAID 9361-8i 8-port SAS 12Gb/s RAID controller with 1GB cache and battery backup supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. Twelve front-accessible 3.5-inch trays accept SATA and SAS drives, while four hybrid bays can take NVMe SSDs with an additional add-on card. This bay count and controller combination determines how many drives you can protect and at what RAID levels.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 256GB DDR4 memory and what step is often missed?

The server has 24 DIMM slots; populate them in the order shown in the motherboard manual for each CPU to enable quad-channel operation, and ensure all modules are fully seated until the ejector clips click.

Which components will need replacement after extended operation?

The MegaRAID 9361-8i controller includes a 1GB cache with a battery-backed module that typically requires replacement every few years to maintain write-back cache protection.

What thermal limit appears first under sustained full load?

Each Xeon Gold 6130 has a 205W TDP; the dual 1000W Titanium power supplies and 2U chassis airflow are rated for this heat, so CPU thermal throttling is the first limit reached if inlet temperature rises.
