Dell PowerEdge R540 2U Server

The Dell PowerEdge R540 is a 2U rack server built for virtualization, database hosting and file or application workloads. Dual Intel Xeon Silver 4114 processors provide 20 cores total at 2.2 GHz with 3.0 GHz turbo. Sixty-four gigabytes of DDR4 ECC memory and a PERC H740P controller with 8 GB cache support RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60.

Suits businesses needing dense 3.5-inch storage

Eight hot-swap 3.5-inch SAS/SATA trays give high capacity for traditional hard drives. iDRAC9 Enterprise enables full remote management and automation. Redundant 750 W platinum power supplies and included rails simplify data-centre deployment. Buyers who need more than two processors or memory beyond 384 GB should look at larger platforms.

Eight 3.5-inch SAS/SATA drive bays define storage

The chassis accepts only 3.5-inch SAS or SATA drives; no smaller form-factor or alternative-interface bays are present. This bay count and interface mix determines whether the server fits your capacity and performance targets.

Questions about this item

What drive trays and controller are included so I can add my own 3.5" drives?

Eight 3.5" SAS/SATA trays and a PERC H740P 8GB controller supporting RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 are installed; drives are not included.

Will my existing DDR4 2666MHz ECC modules work alongside the installed 64GB?

Yes, the server has 16 DDR4 slots and supports up to 384GB total, so registered ECC modules at 2666MHz can fill the remaining slots.

How do I confirm the dual Xeon Silver 4114 CPUs and H740P controller are recognised after first boot?

Check iDRAC9 Enterprise System > Inventory for two 10-core CPUs at 2.2GHz and the PERC H740P with 8GB cache showing healthy battery status.
