Four-socket Xeon server for dense compute

The Dell PowerEdge R940 packs four Intel Xeon Gold 6148 processors at 2.4 GHz with 20 cores each into a 3U rack chassis. It ships with 512 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 16 modules and a PERC H730P controller driving eight 300 GB 10K SAS drives. Dual 1600 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC 9 Enterprise complete the mission-critical foundation.

Suited for heavy database

This configuration targets organisations that need maximum core count and memory capacity in a compact rack footprint. Buyers who require more than eight 2.5-inch drive bays, GPU expansion slots or a smaller form factor should evaluate alternative platforms. The fixed four-processor design also limits future CPU upgrades beyond the installed Gold 6148 chips.

48 DDR4 slots define maximum memory growth

The system board provides 48 DIMM sockets supporting up to 6 TB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory. With 512 GB already populated in 32 GB modules, 32 slots remain open for expansion. This slot count is the decisive figure when planning larger in-memory datasets or additional virtual machines.
