Mission-Critical Compute Platform

The Dell PowerEdge R940 is a 3U rack server built for mission-critical workloads that demand maximum processor density. Four Intel Xeon Gold 6134 processors deliver thirty-two cores at 3.20 GHz with 3.7 GHz turbo frequency. The system targets organisations running large databases, virtualisation clusters or real-time analytics where uptime and raw throughput are paramount.

Four-Socket Scaling Limit

The platform is populated with the maximum of four CPUs in LGA 3647 sockets on the Intel C620 chipset. No further processor expansion is possible, so buyers needing more than thirty-two cores must look beyond this chassis. The PERC H730P controller with 2 GB cache manages RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across the SAS backplane.

Memory and Storage Headroom

Installed memory stands at 512 GB across sixteen 32 GB DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC modules, leaving thirty-two open slots to reach the 6 TB ceiling. Two 300 GB 10K SAS drives provide a starting point; the eight 2.5-inch bays can accept additional SAS or SATA drives for capacity growth. Network connectivity uses a quad-port daughter card with two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ links.

Questions about this item

How does having four Xeon Gold 6134 processors at 3.2 GHz affect real-world throughput?

Four 8-core Xeon Gold 6134 CPUs deliver 32 cores and 64 threads at a 3.2 GHz base clock with 3.7 GHz turbo, giving strong multi-threaded performance for virtualization and database workloads.

What does the PERC H730P 12 Gb/s SAS controller cap in practice?

The H730P supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 at 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA with a 2 GB cache, so drive throughput is limited by the installed 10K SAS disks rather than the controller.

What clearance and mounting hardware does this 3U server need?

The unit occupies 3U of rack height and ships with Ready Rails sliding rails and a front bezel for standard 4-post rack installation.
