Dual-socket Xeon server for virtualization

The PowerEdge R540 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors, each running at 2.1 GHz with 16 cores and a 3.7 GHz turbo frequency. The system ships with 64 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across four modules and supports a maximum capacity of 384 GB across sixteen slots. It is designed for virtualization, database hosting, and business-critical applications requiring multi-threaded compute density.

Sustained multi-core throughput

Under continuous load the dual 16-core CPUs maintain high clock speeds across all thirty-two threads, while the two 750 W platinum-efficiency power supplies operate in redundant hot-swap mode to prevent downtime. Intelligent cooling manages thermal output during extended virtualization or database sessions without throttling, and the HBA330 controller provides 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA connectivity for consistent storage I/O.

Eight hot-swap drive bays

The chassis includes eight 3.5-inch SAS/SATA drive trays ready for hot-swap installation, allowing storage expansion without service interruption. A front bezel and ready rails are included for standard rack mounting. Integrated iDRAC9 Enterprise enables remote firmware updates, power cycling, and hardware monitoring over a dedicated management network, reducing the need for physical access.

Questions about this item

How much heat and power will the dual Xeon Gold 6130 CPUs and 750 W supplies draw under full load?

Two Xeon Gold 6130 processors each run at 2.1 GHz with 16 cores and 3.7 GHz turbo, backed by redundant 750 W Platinum power supplies.

Which drives and cabling must I provide to populate the eight 3.5-inch bays?

The server includes eight 3.5-inch SAS/SATA trays and a PERC HBA330 controller but ships with no drives installed.

Will the LGA 3647 socket and DDR4 2666 MHz memory slots accept my existing Xeon Scalable CPUs and registered ECC modules?

The board uses LGA 3647 sockets and supports up to 384 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC across 16 slots.
