PowerEdge R740 2U server

The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack-mount server built for compute-intensive workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6134 processors running at 3.2 GHz with eight cores each, 64 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory, and a PERC H730P storage controller.

Check power, rack space and network needs

Confirm the rack can accept a 2U unit and supply redundant 750 W connections for the hot-swap power supplies. Verify that 2.5-inch SATA drive bays match your storage plan and that the X520/I350 daughter card provides the 1 GbE and 10 Gb SFP+ links your network requires. Ensure the LGA 3647 socket and C620 chipset align with any future processor upgrades.

Enterprise build with remote management

The chassis includes sliding rails and a front bezel for secure rack mounting. Redundant platinum-efficiency power supplies and hot-swap drive carriers support continuous operation. The iDRAC9 Enterprise module gives full out-of-band control for monitoring, firmware updates and remote console access without being physically present.
