Dell PowerEdge R540 2U 12-bay rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R540 is a 2U rack server designed for expanding business and data centre environments. It delivers enterprise-class reliability with flexible configuration options for virtualization, database management and software-defined storage workloads. The system includes dual Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors and a high-capacity storage array.

Dual Xeon Gold 6130 with 512GB DDR4

This configuration suits organisations running virtualized infrastructures, business-critical databases or storage-intensive applications that benefit from 32 total cores and 512GB of DDR4-2666 ECC memory. Buyers needing more than 12 drive bays, GPU compute capability or a smaller 1U chassis should evaluate other platforms.

12x 4TB 7.2K SATA drives with PERC H730P RAID

The storage subsystem provides 12 hot-plug 3.5-inch 4TB 7.2K RPM SATA drives managed by a Dell PERC H730P controller with 2GB cache. Supported RAID levels include 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode for software-defined storage deployments.

Questions about this item

Will the 12-bay 3.5-inch backplane and H730P controller recognise my existing 7.2K SATA drives?

The R540 backplane accepts 3.5-inch SAS and SATA drives; the H730P 12Gb/s controller supports SATA 6Gb/s so your 7.2K drives will be detected and can be configured in any supported RAID level.

How do I verify the two Xeon 6130 CPUs and 512GB DDR4-2666 memory are running at 2.1GHz base and 3.7GHz turbo after first boot?

Open iDRAC 9 Express System > Inventory > Processors and Memory; both CPUs should show 16 cores at 2.1GHz base / 3.7GHz turbo and sixteen 32GB DDR4-2666 ECC RDIMMs totalling 512GB.

The listing says front bezel and ready rails are not included — what ships in the box and what must I order separately?

Ships with chassis, 2x Xeon 6130, 512GB DDR4, H730P with battery, 12x 4TB 3.5-inch HDDs, dual 1GbE, iDRAC9 Express, 2x 750W PSUs; order rack rails and bezel separately.
