Dell PowerEdge R740 2U Rack Server

The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Silver 4210R processors, each running at 2.4 GHz with 10 cores. It ships with 512 GB of DDR4 memory across 16 modules and eight 7.68 TB SAS SSDs managed by an H730P controller. Remote management is handled by iDRAC9 Enterprise.

Ideal for dense virtualisation and storage workloads

This configuration suits organisations that need high core counts and large flash capacity in a compact 2U form factor. The eight 2.5-inch drive bays are fully populated, leaving no room for additional internal drives. Buyers who require more storage bays or a different drive interface should consider other platforms.

H730P RAID controller with eight SAS SSDs

The H730P controller drives the eight 7.68 TB SAS SSDs and defines the RAID levels and performance available. Its capabilities determine whether the array meets your redundancy and throughput requirements. Verify the controller specification against your workload before purchase.

Questions about this item

Will the 8x 2.5" drive bays and H730P controller accept my existing 2.5" SAS drives?

The chassis provides 8x 2.5" bays and the H730P RAID controller manages SAS SSDs, so compatible 2.5" SAS drives can be installed in the open bays.

How do I verify the dual Silver 4210R CPUs and 512GB DDR4 are recognised after first boot?

Enter the BIOS or iDRAC9 Enterprise interface; both will show 2x 10-core processors at 2.4GHz and 16x 32GB PC4-2666 modules totalling 512GB.

Does the shipment include rails, bezel and power cords, or must I order them separately?

The package includes bezel (no LCD), sliding rails and power cords; no additional parts are required for rack mounting and power connection.
