Ready-to-deploy 3U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R940 delivers a 4-socket Intel Xeon Gold 6134 platform with 256GB of DDR4 memory, eight 300GB SAS drives on a PERC H730P controller and dual 10Gb SFP+ networking in a 3U form factor. Redundant 1600W platinum power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management are included for production readiness.

Suits database and virtualisation hosts needing

Organisations running memory-intensive workloads, real-time analytics or dense virtualisation clusters benefit from the 32 total cores and 6TB memory ceiling. Buyers who require more than eight 2.5-inch drive bays or a different storage interface should evaluate other chassis options.

Four physical processors installed.

The system ships with the maximum of four Xeon Gold 6134 CPUs already populated, so there is no capacity to add further processors later. Memory can still be expanded across the remaining DIMM slots up to the 6TB limit.

Questions about this item

How does the 3.2 GHz base clock with 3.7 GHz turbo translate to real-world throughput across the four Xeon Gold 6134 processors?

Each of the four processors delivers 8 cores at a 3.2 GHz base frequency and can boost to 3.7 GHz, giving 32 cores total for parallel workloads such as virtualization or database processing.

What does the PERC H730P 12 Gb/s SAS controller limit in terms of drive performance and RAID options?

The controller runs at 12 Gb/s over SAS and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through, so the eight 300 GB 10 K drives are capped by the controller's 12 Gb/s link and the chosen RAID level.

What physical space and mounting hardware does the 3U chassis require for installation?

The server occupies 3U of rack height and ships with Dell Ready Rails plus a front bezel for mounting in a standard 4-post rack.
