Dual Xeon Gold 6130 2U 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 ships with 256 GB of DDR4-2666 ECC registered memory across eight 32 GB modules. A PERC H330 controller manages twelve 3.5-inch drive bays currently populated with fillers. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC9 Express remote management complete the configuration.

Virtualisation and database workloads

This system suits organisations deploying virtualisation clusters, software-defined storage or database applications that benefit from 32 total cores and large ECC memory capacity. The twelve-bay chassis allows future SAS or SATA storage expansion without adding enclosures. Buyers needing GPU-accelerated compute or single-thread speeds above 3.7 GHz should evaluate alternative platforms.

PERC H330 12Gb/s storage controller

The integrated PERC H330 provides 12 Gb/s SAS and SATA connectivity across all twelve drive bays. It determines which drive types and RAID levels are supported and whether a separate controller is required for advanced features. Verify that the H330 matches your storage protocol and redundancy requirements before purchase.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the dual Xeon Gold 6130 CPUs are running at 2.1GHz base and 3.7GHz turbo after installation?

Check the BIOS or iDRAC9 Express system inventory; both will show each 16-core processor at 2.1GHz base clock with 3.7GHz turbo capability.

Which components arrive installed and which items such as front bezel or rails must be purchased separately?

The server ships with two Xeon Gold 6130 CPUs, eight 32GB DDR4-2666 ECC RDIMMs, PERC H330 controller, twelve 3.5-inch drive fillers, dual 1GbE ports, iDRAC9 Express, and two 750W platinum PSUs; front bezel and ready rails are not included.

Should I choose a different PERC controller or add drives instead of the 12 fillers for a 12-bay 3.5-inch configuration?

The included H330 supports SAS and SATA drives across all 12 bays; replace the fillers with the capacity and drive type your workload requires.
