DELL PowerEdge R940 3U rack server

The DELL PowerEdge R940 is a 3U rack server built for dense compute workloads. Four Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors deliver 16 cores each at 2.10 GHz with 3.7 GHz turbo capability. The system ships with 64 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across 48 available slots. Redundant 1600 W platinum power supplies and hot-swap drive bays support continuous operation.

Suits virtualization hosts and database clusters

This configuration fits organizations consolidating virtual machines or running memory-intensive databases that benefit from four-socket scaling. The PERC H730P controller provides hardware RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 with a 2 GB cache. Buyers who need more than eight 2.5-inch SAS drive bays or who require GPU-accelerated workloads should evaluate alternative platforms. The installed 300 GB 10K SAS drives offer limited capacity for primary storage.

48 DDR4 slots define maximum memory

The single specification that determines suitability is the 48 DDR4 memory slots supporting up to 6 TB total capacity. With only 64 GB installed across four modules, 44 slots remain open for expansion. Workloads that demand terabyte-scale memory can grow within this chassis, while lighter applications leave significant headroom unused. Memory type is locked to DDR4 registered ECC.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the four 16 GB DDR4 modules or plan for a larger 6 TB configuration?

The server ships with 64 GB across four slots. Forty-four slots remain open, so you can add registered ECC DDR4 modules up to the 6 TB ceiling when the workload demands it.

What does the 2.1 GHz base clock with 3.7 GHz turbo mean for sustained workloads?

Four 16-core Xeon Gold 6130 processors run at 2.1 GHz base and can boost to 3.7 GHz on active cores, giving 64 threads for parallel tasks while staying within the 3U thermal envelope.

How does the PERC H730P 12 Gb/s SAS controller limit the two 300 GB 10K drives?

The H730P supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 at 12 Gb/s per port. With two 300 GB 10K SAS drives you are capped at a single mirrored pair or striped volume until more bays are populated.
