Mission-critical compute density

The Dell PowerEdge R940 packs four Intel Xeon Gold 6134 processors, each running at 3.2 GHz with eight cores, into a 3U rack chassis. One hundred twenty-eight gigabytes of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory are installed across 48 slots, leaving room to scale toward the 6 TB maximum. The PERC H730P controller with 2 GB cache supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through for the eight 2.5-inch SAS/SATA drive bays.

Thermals and power under load

Dual 1600 watt platinum-efficiency power supplies share the load and provide full redundancy for continuous operation. Hot-swap capability means a failed unit can be replaced without shutting down the server. The 3U form factor allows sufficient airflow for the four-socket configuration while keeping acoustic output within typical data-centre limits.

Build, connectivity and remote management

Ready Rails and a front bezel are included for immediate rack integration. A quad-port network daughter card delivers two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ connections for flexible uplink options. iDRAC 9 Enterprise enables comprehensive out-of-band management, monitoring and remote console access independent of the operating system.

Questions about this item

How do I install the Xeon Gold 6134 processors into the LGA 3647 sockets, and which step is most often missed?

Align the processor with the socket keys, lower the load plate, then secure the lever; the step most often missed is applying thermal paste before seating the heatsink.

What maintenance will the PERC H730P 2GB controller battery need later?

The controller battery backs the write cache; plan to replace it every three to five years or when iDRAC 9 Enterprise reports a degraded state.

What limit appears first when all four 3.2 GHz CPUs run sustained workloads?

The dual 1600 watt platinum power supplies set the thermal and power ceiling; sustained turbo to 3.7 GHz will throttle once the 1600 W budget is reached.
