3U four-socket Xeon Platinum server

The Dell PowerEdge R940 is a 3U rack server populated with four Intel Xeon Platinum 8160 processors, each running at 2.1 GHz with 24 cores. It ships with 128 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across eight modules and a Dell PERC H730P 2 GB RAID controller. Dual 1600 W redundant power supplies, an Intel X520/I350 quad-port network daughter card, iDRAC9 Enterprise and ready rails complete the package.

Suits dense compute clusters.

This system targets environments that need maximum core count and memory capacity in a compact 3U form factor, such as virtualization hosts, in-memory databases or high-performance computing nodes. Buyers who only require one or two processors, or who need a tower chassis, should consider a smaller platform. The fixed four-socket design also means it cannot be scaled down for lighter tasks.

PERC H730P RAID controller with 2 GB cache

The storage subsystem centres on the Dell PERC H730P controller, which supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. Two 300 GB 10 K SAS drives are installed in the eight 2.5‑inch front bays. If your deployment demands a different RAID level, additional drive types or a controller without battery-backed cache, you will need to select an alternative server.
