4-Socket Xeon Gold 6148 Rack Server

The Dell PowerEdge R940 is a 3U rack system fitted with four Intel Xeon Gold 6148 processors. Each CPU runs at 2.4 GHz with 20 cores and reaches 3.7 GHz turbo. The chassis holds 768 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 24 modules and includes a PERC H730P controller with battery-backed cache.

Virtualisation and Database Hosts

This server suits organisations running large databases, in-memory analytics or dense virtualisation on a proven 4-socket platform. Buyers needing more than four processors or more than 6 TB of memory should look at larger form-factor systems. Sites without rack infrastructure or redundant power requirements will find the 3U height and dual 1600 W supplies excessive.

768 GB DDR4 Registered ECC Memory Installed

The system ships with 768 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory populated in 24 of the 48 available slots. This capacity determines how many virtual machines or how large a dataset can reside in RAM without swapping. If the workload demands more memory, the remaining slots support expansion up to the 6 TB platform limit using compatible DDR4 modules.
