Four-Socket 3U Rack Server

The Dell PowerEdge R940 is a 3U rack server built for dense compute workloads. It ships with four Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors, each running at 2.1 GHz with 16 cores and a 3.7 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 128 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across 48 available slots. A PERC H730P controller with 2 GB cache manages eight 300 GB 10K SAS drives in 2.5 inch bays.

Suited for Virtualisation and Database Work

This configuration targets organisations running virtualisation clusters, in-memory databases or ERP platforms that benefit from high core counts and large memory capacity. Four processors and 128 GB RAM provide a solid base for scaling up to the 6 TB maximum. Buyers who require GPU acceleration, single-thread speeds beyond 3.7 GHz or more than eight internal drive bays should evaluate alternative platforms.

6 TB Maximum Memory Capacity

The Intel C620 chipset supports up to 6 TB of DDR4 across 48 DIMM slots, making memory ceiling the key specification for long-term planning. The current 128 GB population uses only a fraction of this headroom, allowing straightforward expansion as workloads grow. Compatibility is limited to DDR4 registered ECC modules; other memory generations will not function in this system.

Questions about this item

Does the R940 ship with all four Xeon Gold 6130 processors and 128GB of DDR4 memory installed?

Yes, the server includes four Intel Xeon Gold 6130 2.1GHz 16-core processors and 128GB (8x 16GB) DDR4 2666MHz registered ECC memory pre-installed.

Which storage controller and drive configuration come with this R940?

It includes a Dell PERC H730P 2GB 12Gb/s SAS/SATA controller with battery-backed cache and eight 300GB 10K SAS 2.5-inch hard drives.

What does the 3.7GHz turbo figure mean for the Xeon Gold 6130 in this 4-socket server?

The 3.7GHz turbo is the maximum single-core frequency each 6130 can reach when thermal and power headroom allow, boosting burst performance for latency-sensitive workloads.
