Capacity and compute profile

This 2U rack server delivers dual Intel Xeon Gold 6134 processors at 3.20 GHz with eight cores each and 128 GB of DDR4 ECC memory across 24 DIMM slots. The PERC H730P controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 with a 2 GB cache, while two 300 GB 10K SAS drives provide initial storage. Redundant 750 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise complete the platform.

Who this suits and who it does not

Organisations running virtualised workloads, databases or high-performance applications that benefit from two-socket scaling and hardware RAID will find the configuration ready to deploy. Buyers who need more than two processors, require installed solid-state storage, or need a deeper drive bay count should evaluate other platforms.

Deciding specification

The installed CPU count is fixed at two Xeon Gold 6134 units with no additional sockets available, so the processor ceiling is set at purchase and cannot be expanded later.

Questions about this item

What is included with the server and what must be purchased separately?

The unit ships with two Xeon Gold 6134 processors, 128 GB DDR4 in eight 16 GB modules, a PERC H730P controller with battery, two 300 GB 10K SAS drives, an Intel X520/I350 quad-port network card, iDRAC9 Enterprise, two 750 W platinum PSUs, rails and a front bezel. Additional drives, memory or GPU cards are not included.

Which memory configuration matches the 128 GB specification?

The system arrives with eight 16 GB DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC DIMMs installed, leaving 16 of the 24 slots free for expansion up to 3 TB.

What does the 3.2 GHz base clock mean in practice for the Xeon Gold 6134?

Each 8-core processor runs at 3.2 GHz base and can reach 3.7 GHz turbo; sustained speed varies with workload, power limits and cooling in the 2U chassis.
