Mission-critical 4-socket server

The Dell PowerEdge R940 is a 3U rack server built for mission-critical workloads. It carries four Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors, each with 16 cores at 2.1 GHz and 3.7 GHz turbo. The system includes 64 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory and a PERC H730P controller managing eight 1.2 TB 10K SAS drives. Dual 1600 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise complete the package.

Upgrade from 2-socket density limits

This platform replaces two-socket servers that have hit their core or memory ceiling. The jump is worth it when workloads need 64 cores in a single 3U chassis or when the 6 TB memory capacity is required for large in-memory databases. The H730P controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 with a 2 GB cache. Quad-port networking provides two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ links for flexible fabric integration.

Buyers needing maximum cores in 3U

Organisations running virtualisation clusters, ERP suites or real-time analytics on a single node will benefit from the four-socket design. Buyers who need more internal storage bays than the eight 2.5-inch slots provided should look at alternative chassis. Teams without rack infrastructure or redundant power distribution will not be able to use the hot-swap power supplies and rails included.

Questions about this item

What rack depth do the included rails support for the 3U R940 chassis?

The ready rails supplied with the R940 mount in standard 4-post racks and adjust to common cabinet depths; verify your rack's inner dimension before installation.

Which slot does the PERC H730P controller occupy during installation, and what cable routing step is often missed?

The H730P installs in a dedicated internal storage slot; the step most installers miss is routing the two SAS cables from the backplane to the controller before seating the drives.

When should the battery on the PERC H730P be replaced, and how is it accessed?

The H730P uses a replaceable RAID battery that typically lasts several years; it is accessed by removing the controller from its dedicated slot and swapping the battery module.
