Dual Xeon Gold 5118 2U Server

The Dell PowerEdge R540 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Gold 5118 processors, each running at 2.3 GHz with 12 cores. It ships with 32 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory and a PERC H330 controller managing eight 4 TB SAS hard drives. Dual 750 W redundant power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management are included.

Virtualisation and Database Workloads

This server suits organisations running virtualisation clusters, database instances, or file and application services that need large SAS capacity and dual-processor throughput. Buyers who require all-flash arrays or GPU compute resources should evaluate other platforms.

PERC H330 RAID Controller

The installed PERC H330 provides 12 Gb/s SAS and SATA connectivity with support for RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 and 50 plus pass-through mode. This controller determines which drive types and redundancy levels can be configured in the eight 3.5-inch bays.

Questions about this item

Does the server ship with rails and a bezel included?

The package includes rack mounting rails and a front bezel for immediate installation in a standard cabinet.

Should I choose the 32 GB configuration or plan to populate all 16 slots up to 1 TB?

32 GB across four 8 GB modules leaves twelve empty slots so you can add capacity later without removing existing sticks.

What throughput can the eight 4 TB 7.2K SAS drives deliver through the PERC H330 controller?

The drives run at 12 Gb/s SAS and the controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 and 50 for mixed read-write workloads.
