Dell PowerEdge R740 2U rack server

This 2U rack server ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors, each running at 2.1 GHz with 16 cores. It includes 64 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 24 slots and eight 400 GB SATA SSDs managed by a PERC H730P RAID controller. Redundant 750 W power supplies, iDRAC9 Enterprise, and quad-port networking are fitted as standard.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

The system suits workloads that need dual-socket compute density, hardware RAID across SATA or SAS drives, and remote management via iDRAC9. Buyers who need more than two processors, storage interfaces other than SATA or SAS, or memory beyond the 3 TB maximum should evaluate other platforms.

The specification that decides fit

The installed storage uses eight 400 GB SATA SSDs behind a PERC H730P controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. If your application requires a different drive interface or capacity, this server will not match without reconfiguration.
