Mission-Critical 4-Socket Rack Server

The Dell PowerEdge R940 is a 3U rack server built for demanding enterprise workloads. Four Intel Xeon Gold 6142 processors deliver 64 total cores at a base frequency of 2.6 GHz with 3.7 GHz turbo capability. The system includes 128 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across eight modules. A PERC H730P controller manages eight 1.2 TB 10K SAS drives in a 2.5-inch hot-swap chassis.

Suited for Consolidated Databases and Virtualisation

Organisations running large SQL instances, in-memory analytics or dense virtualisation clusters benefit from the four-socket architecture and 6 TB maximum memory capacity. The quad-port network daughter card provides two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ connections for flexible fabric integration. Buyers who need GPU-accelerated compute or more than eight internal drive bays should evaluate alternative platforms.

Four Fully Populated CPU Sockets Decide Fit

The R940 ships with all four LGA 3647 sockets occupied by 16-core Xeon Gold 6142 CPUs, leaving no room for processor upgrades. Memory expansion remains open across 40 vacant DDR4 slots up to the 6 TB limit. Redundant 1600 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC 9 Enterprise remote management are included. Confirm that your workload licences and cooling capacity align with a fully populated four-socket configuration before purchase.
