Dell PowerEdge R540 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R540 is a 2U rackmount server system built for data-centre deployment. It ships with dual Intel Xeon Silver 4114 processors, each running at 2.2 GHz with 10 cores, and 32 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 16 slots. Eight 8 TB 7.2K SAS hard drives connect through a PERC H740P controller with 8 GB cache. Dual 750 W redundant power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management complete the package.

Suited for virtualization

This configuration fits teams running virtual machines, databases, or file and application services that benefit from large SAS capacity and hardware RAID flexibility. The dual-socket design and 1 TB maximum memory ceiling support growth without a chassis change. Buyers who need more than 16 DIMM slots, faster drive interfaces, or GPU compute capacity should evaluate other platforms.

Eight 8 TB SAS drives on H740P controller

The storage subsystem delivers 64 TB raw capacity through eight 3.5-inch 7.2K SAS drives managed by the PERC H740P with battery-backed cache. RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through are supported. This single specification determines whether the server meets your capacity and redundancy requirements.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 8 x 8 TB SAS drives or a smaller capacity?

The server ships with eight 8 TB 7.2K SAS drives for 64 TB raw capacity; reduce the count only if your workload needs less space.

What does the 2.2 GHz base clock with 3.0 GHz turbo mean for my workloads?

Each Silver 4114 runs at 2.2 GHz base and can boost to 3.0 GHz, giving 20 total cores for virtualization or database tasks.

What RAID levels does the H740P controller support and what throughput does the 12 Gb/s SAS link cap at?

The PERC H740P supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through; the 12 Gb/s SAS interface limits each drive to that bus speed.
