Four-socket Xeon Gold 6142 server

The Dell PowerEdge R940 is a 3U rack server populated with four Intel Xeon Gold 6142 processors, each running at 2.6 GHz with 16 cores. It ships with 64 GB of DDR4 memory installed across 48 slots and supports up to 6 TB total capacity. Eight 1.2 TB 10K SAS drives connect through a PERC H730P controller, while dual 10 Gb SFP+ and dual 1 GbE ports handle networking. Redundant 1600 W power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise management complete the package.

Suited for memory-intensive workloads.

This platform suits organisations consolidating virtual machines, running large databases or operating in-memory analytics where 4-socket scaling and 6 TB maximum memory matter. Buyers who need higher single-thread frequency, discrete GPU acceleration or more than eight drive bays should look at alternative configurations. The fixed four-processor layout also limits incremental CPU upgrades.

PERC H730P RAID controller with 2 GB cache

The installed Dell PERC H730P provides 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA connectivity with 2 GB battery-backed cache and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 plus pass-through. This specification determines which drive types, array layouts and rebuild performance are available. Verify that the controller matches your storage topology before purchase.
