Four-Socket 3U Server

The Dell PowerEdge R940 is a 3U rackmount server system built for compute-intensive workloads. It ships with four Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors, each running at 2.1 GHz with 16 cores and a 3.7 GHz turbo frequency. The platform includes 256 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across 48 available slots. A PERC H730P controller manages the two installed 300 GB 10K SAS drives in eight 2.5-inch bays.

Fits Enterprise Databases, Not Small Offices

This server suits organisations running large databases, virtualisation clusters or in-memory analytics that benefit from four sockets and up to 6 TB of memory. Redundant 1600 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management support continuous operation. Buyers who need only a single or dual-socket platform, or who require a smaller rack footprint, should evaluate alternative platforms.

48 DDR4 Slots Define Maximum Capacity

The single specification that decides fit is the 48 DDR4 memory slots supporting a 6 TB maximum. If the target workload requires less than 256 GB today but may scale beyond dual-socket limits, this chassis provides headroom. If the application will never exceed dual-socket memory capacity, a smaller server reduces cost and power draw.
