High-Core Compute with Tiered Storage Options
The Dell PowerEdge R540 2U rackmount server delivers serious processing power with 2 x Intel Xeon Gold 6230 CPUs, each offering 20 cores at 2.10GHz, totalling 40 cores and 80 threads. It’s supported by 128GB of DDR4 memory, giving enough bandwidth for multi-threaded enterprise workloads, concurrent VM instances, and application environments with demanding memory footprints. The server includes 2 x Dell 8TB 7.2K 12Gbps SAS hard drives, ideal for large, persistent data storage, while the Dell BOSS controller hosts 2 x 240GB M.2 SATA SSDs, separating the OS from bulk storage to improve system responsiveness. Storage control is managed via the Dell PERC H730P RAID controller with 8GB cache, optimising read/write performance and improving redundancy for mission-critical deployments.
Ideal for Scalable Virtualisation and Hybrid Workload Environments
This configuration is built for businesses needing strong parallel compute alongside manageable, expandable storage. The 40-core setup makes it well-suited to large-scale virtualisation clusters, containerised application environments, or multi-tenant platforms where consistent performance and isolation are key. The 2 x 8TB drives provide high-capacity local storage for file hosting, backup targets, log retention, or analytics data, while the 12-bay chassis allows for phased storage expansion as requirements grow. It’s equally capable in media processing, DevOps pipelines, or VDI environments where compute density is critical. With iDRAC9 Enterprise remote access and dual 1GbE ports, it integrates seamlessly into both datacentre racks and edge locations.
