Versatile 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R540 is a 2U rack server built for virtualization, database hosting and file serving. Dual Intel Xeon Silver 4114 processors provide 20 total cores at 2.2 GHz with 3.0 GHz turbo. It includes 32 GB of DDR4 ECC memory across 16 slots and ships with iDRAC 9 Enterprise for remote management.

Storage controller and bay count

The PERC H330 controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 and 50 across eight 3.5-inch SAS or SATA drive trays. No drives are installed, so you choose capacity and drive type to match the workload. The controller handles 12 Gb/s SAS and SATA links for consistent throughput.

Redundant power and cooling

Two hot-swap 750 W 80+ Platinum power supplies share the load and keep the system running if one unit fails. The 2U chassis uses intelligent cooling to maintain stable temperatures during sustained workloads without throttling processor performance.
