Scalable Dual-Socket Performance in a Storage-Rich 2U Form Factor
The Dell PowerEdge R540 2U rackmount server combines dependable compute capability with excellent storage flexibility. Equipped with 2 x Intel Xeon Silver 4208 8-core processors and 32GB DDR4 memory, it’s ready for diverse workloads across SMBs or mid-sized environments. The configuration includes 2 x 2TB 7.2K SATA drives (4TB total) for data, and a Dell BOSS controller paired with 2 x 240GB M.2 SSDs—giving you dedicated operating system reliability and faster boot times. The 12-bay chassis provides room to scale storage further, while the H730P RAID controller and redundant 1100W PSUs ensure enterprise-grade resilience.

Its dual Silver CPUs offer consistent performance for virtualisation, hosting, or moderate-scale multi-threaded workloads.
