Dell PowerEdge R540 2U rack server
The Dell PowerEdge R540 is a 2U rack server built for virtualization, database hosting, and file or application workloads. Dual Xeon Silver 4114 processors provide 20 cores total at 2.2 GHz with 3.0 GHz turbo capability. It ships with 128GB DDR4 ECC memory across eight 16GB modules and a PERC H330 controller managing eight 4TB SAS hard drives.
Suited for storage-dense workloads, not GPU compute
IT teams needing high-capacity 3.5-inch SAS storage in a compact 2U form factor will match this server well. The eight drive bays and 12Gb/s controller support RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, and 50 for redundancy or throughput. Buyers who need GPU acceleration should look at a different platform because this chassis does not accommodate add-in cards.
PERC H330 RAID controller with eight 4TB SAS drives
The integrated Dell PERC H330 12Gb/s SAS/SATA PCIe storage controller governs all eight installed 4TB 7.2K SAS drives. It delivers hardware RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 10, and 50 plus pass-through mode. This single component determines both the usable capacity and the data-protection options available to the operating system.
