DELL PowerEdge T340 tower server, Xeon E-2124, 16GB DDR4, 4TB SATA SSD

Tower server for small-business workloads

The Dell PowerEdge T340 is a 4-bay tower server built around an Intel Xeon E-2124 quad-core processor running at 3.3 GHz. It ships with 16 GB of DDR4 memory and 4 TB of SATA SSD storage configured on an integrated PERC S140 RAID controller. The system includes iDRAC9 Express for remote management and dual 1 Gb network ports. It targets small businesses needing a quiet, office-friendly platform for file, print or light virtualisation tasks.

Fits a standard office environment

The 3.5-inch hot-plug chassis accepts up to four drives without requiring a rack or specialised cooling. A single cabled power supply keeps cabling simple, while the on-board Broadcom 5720 dual-port 1 Gb LOM provides network connectivity without extra cards. An included 16 GB USB flash drive assists with data transfer or OS installation. The DVD-ROM remains available for legacy media. No redundant power supply is present, so the unit suits sites that can tolerate a single power source.

16 GB memory and 4 TB SSD handle light

The two 8 GB DDR4 modules at 2666 MHz leave DIMM slots open for future expansion when workloads grow. The paired 2 TB SATA SSDs deliver 4 TB of redundant or striped capacity through the PERC S140 controller, adequate for shared folders, backups or a handful of virtual machines. Demands beyond moderate I/O or larger memory footprints will require additional drives or memory modules not included in this configuration.
