Dell PowerEdge R740 dual Gold 6126 server

This 2U rack server ships with two Intel Gold 6126 processors running at 2.6GHz, each providing 12 cores. It includes 128GB of DDR4 memory arranged as eight 16GB modules at PC4-2666 speed. The system uses a PERC H730P RAID controller and comes with four 120GB SATA RI SSDs installed in the front bays.

Suits virtualisation hosts needing dense compute

The eight 2.5-inch drive bays and redundant 1100W power supplies support high-availability workloads. Dual 10Gb and dual 1Gb Ethernet ports handle heavy network traffic. Buyers who need more internal storage capacity or GPU acceleration should consider other configurations because the chassis is limited to eight small-form-factor bays and no GPU is included.

Verify rack depth and PCIe slot requirements

The server provides up to eight PCIe Gen 3 slots for add-in cards. Ensure your rack can accommodate a 2U unit and that the included sliding rails match your cabinet spacing. Confirm the operating system supports the H730P controller and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management features.

Questions about this item

What rack space and rails are needed to install the R740 2U server?

The R740 occupies 2U of rack height and the listing includes rails for mounting in a standard 19-inch rack.

Can the Intel X550 10Gb RJ45 ports link to older 1Gb switches?

Yes, the NDC provides two 10Gb RJ45 ports and two 1Gb RJ45 ports, so both speeds are supported natively.

How do I verify the H730P RAID controller sees all four 120GB SSDs?

Open the iDRAC9 Enterprise interface or the controller BIOS during boot; both will display each 120GB SATA SSD and the configured virtual disks.
