Mission-critical 4-socket rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R940 is a 3U rack server built for mission-critical workloads. Four Intel Xeon Gold 5120 processors deliver 56 total cores at 2.2 GHz with 3.2 GHz turbo. 256 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory and a PERC H730P RAID controller provide a foundation for demanding databases and virtualisation clusters.

Suited for dense compute.

This platform fits organisations that need maximum CPU cores and memory capacity in a 3U footprint. Redundant 1600 W power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise simplify remote management. Buyers requiring GPU acceleration or more than eight 2.5-inch drive bays should evaluate other platforms.

Four-socket Xeon Gold 5120 configuration decides fit

The installed complement of four 14-core Xeon Gold 5120 CPUs defines the performance envelope. With all processor sockets populated, the system reaches its maximum 56-core capacity and 6 TB memory limit. Confirm that your licensing and workload scale match this fixed topology before purchasing.

Questions about this item

What storage drives must I supply for the eight 2.5-inch trays?

The trays accept 2.5-inch SATA or SAS hard drives or SSDs; no drives are included.

Can the Dell PERC H730P controller manage the drives I already own?

Yes, the H730P supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through for SATA and SAS drives.

How do I confirm the four Xeon Gold 5120 CPUs and 256 GB DDR4 are recognised?

Check the iDRAC9 Enterprise dashboard or the BIOS POST screen; both will show four 14-core processors at 2.2 GHz and 256 GB registered ECC memory.
