Dual Xeon Silver 4210 Server

This Dell PowerEdge R740 system ships with two Intel Xeon Silver 4210 processors running at 2.2GHz and 32GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. The 2U rack chassis supports up to sixteen 2.5-inch SAS drive bays for dense storage configurations. It targets organisations needing virtualisation hosts or database nodes with dual-socket performance.

PERC H730P and iDRAC9 Enterprise

The installed PERC H730P RAID controller provides hardware RAID across all drive bays while the iDRAC9 Enterprise licence enables full remote console, power control and firmware updates over the network. A 10GbE dual-port 562T adapter adds high-throughput connectivity for cluster traffic. Dual 1100W power supplies deliver redundancy for continuous operation.

Rack Mount Installation Notes

The unit measures 36 by 24 by 10 inches and weighs 40 units, so two-person lifting or a mechanical lift is recommended when sliding it into a standard rack. Rails are available on request but not included by default. No drives are installed so the buyer must procure compatible SAS drives and configure RAID before deploying workloads.

Questions about this item

How many DDR4 memory slots remain free for future upgrades?

The system ships with 32 GB installed as two 16 GB modules; the R740 supports up to 3 TB total capacity across 24 DDR4 slots, leaving ample room for expansion.

Which component caps performance first when both Xeon Silver 4210 processors run at 2.2 GHz continuously?

The two 10-core CPUs share a 13.75 MB cache each; sustained all-core workloads typically hit the thermal envelope of the 2U chassis before the PERC H730P or 10 GbE 562T adapter become bottlenecks.

What is the typical power draw and acoustic profile when the dual 1100 W supplies run a full 16-bay SAS load all day?

Dual 1100 W PSUs provide redundancy; under a full 16-drive SAS load the system draws several hundred watts and fan speed rises to maintain the 36 x 24 x 10 in chassis within thermal limits.
