Dell PowerEdge R540 2U server
This Dell PowerEdge R540 is a new 2U rack server built for data-centre and growing-business workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 5118 processors running at 2.3 GHz with 3.2 GHz turbo across twelve cores each. Thirty-two gigabytes of DDR4-2400 ECC registered memory and a PERC HBA330 controller come pre-installed.
Suited for virtualization
The configuration targets teams running virtualization, software-defined storage or database applications that benefit from high drive counts and hardware RAID support. Buyers who need more than twelve 3.5-inch bays, faster networking than dual gigabit ports, or GPU compute capacity should consider other platforms.
Twelve 8 TB enterprise hard drives on HBA330
The server includes twelve Dell enterprise 8 TB 7.2K SATA drives connected to the HBA330 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA controller. This single storage specification determines whether the raw capacity and throughput match the intended workload.

Questions sur cet article
What rack depth and rail kit do I need to mount the 2U PowerEdge R540?
The server is a 2U rackmount unit; front bezel and ready rails are not included, so you must supply compatible sliding rails for your cabinet depth.
How do I install the twelve 3.5-inch drives and the HBA330 controller, and what step is often missed?
Populate the twelve front 3.5-inch bays with the 8TB 7.2K SATA drives, seat the PERC HBA330 in a PCIe slot, then create virtual disks in the controller BIOS before installing an OS.
Which components will likely need replacement first in the R540?
The twelve 8TB 7.2K SATA hard drives and the two 750W platinum power supplies are the primary field-replaceable units that wear over time.
