Four-socket Xeon server for dense compute

The Dell PowerEdge R940 fits four Intel Xeon Gold 5118 processors, each with 12 cores running at 2.3 GHz and a 3.2 GHz turbo frequency. It ships with 64 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 48 slots, supporting up to 6 TB total. The 3U rack chassis targets organisations that need high core counts in limited rack space.

Hot-swap power and flexible drive bays

Two redundant 1600 W platinum power supplies and hot-swap 2.5-inch drive trays let you replace components without downtime. The PERC H730P controller with 2 GB cache supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across the eight SATA or SAS bays. A quad-port network daughter card adds two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ links, while iDRAC9 Enterprise provides dedicated remote management.

Verify rack depth and memory expansion plans

Confirm your rack can accommodate the 3U height and the included sliding rails before ordering. The system arrives without installed drives, so budget for eight 2.5-inch SAS or SATA devices. Memory upgrades use DDR4 registered ECC modules only; mixed generations will not work.
