Dual-processor 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R540 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors running at 2.1 GHz with 16 cores each. It includes 64 GB of DDR4 memory and eight 4 TB 7.2K SAS drives managed by a PERC H740P controller. This configuration targets virtualization, database hosting and file-serving workloads in business environments.

Memory slots and drive bays

Before ordering, confirm that your rack provides 2U of vertical space and that the power infrastructure can support redundant 750 W supplies. The system uses an LGA 3647 socket platform with 16 DIMM slots, of which four are populated, leaving room for expansion up to 384 GB. Eight 3.5-inch drive bays are occupied by the installed SAS drives.

Sustained multi-core throughput

Under sustained load the dual 16-core Xeon configuration maintains a 2.1 GHz base frequency with a 3.7 GHz turbo ceiling across all cores. The H740P controller with 8 GB cache sustains RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 throughput for continuous database or virtualization I/O. Redundant platinum power supplies and iDRAC 9 Enterprise management keep the platform stable during extended operations.

Questions about this item

Does the server ship with rails and bezel, or do I need to order them separately?

Ready Rails and the front bezel are included with the chassis, so no extra mounting kit is required.

Which RAID levels does the PERC H740P controller support for the eight 4 TB SAS drives?

The controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60, giving a range of redundancy and capacity options.

How much memory can be added to the four populated DIMM slots to reach the 384 GB maximum?

Twelve additional slots are free; populating them with compatible DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC modules brings the total to 384 GB.
