DELL PowerEdge R740 2U Rack Server 2x Silver 4210R 10C 2.4GHz 128GB DDR4 8x 120GB SATA SSD H730P

Dell PowerEdge R740 2U Rack Server

The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server built for virtualization and database workloads. It ships with two Intel Silver 4210R processors, each delivering 10 cores at 2.4GHz. The system includes 128GB of DDR4 memory across eight 16GB modules running at 2666 MT/s. It suits IT teams needing dense compute in a standard rack footprint.

Eight 2.5-inch bays with H730P RAID

Eight 2.5-inch drive bays come populated with 120GB SATA RI SSDs behind an H730P RAID controller. The controller frees CPU cycles by handling parity calculations and cache management in hardware. Up to eight PCIe Gen 3 slots remain available for additional network or accelerator cards. Dual 1100W redundant power supplies keep the chassis running during a module failure.

iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management

iDRAC9 Enterprise provides out-of-band access for firmware updates, power cycling, and console redirection without an operating system. The Intel X550 network daughter card adds two 10Gb RJ45 and two 1Gb RJ45 ports for flexible fabric connectivity. Sustained workloads benefit from the large 13.75M cache per processor and redundant cooling designed for continuous operation. No optical drive is included, reducing front-panel failure points.
