Ready-to-deploy rack server

This Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack-mount system shipped new with dual Intel Xeon Silver 4110 processors at 2.1 GHz, 128 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across eight 16 GB modules, a PERC H730P RAID controller with 2 GB cache, and two 400 GB SATA SSDs. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies, iDRAC 9 Enterprise, quad-port networking, rails and bezel are all included for immediate installation.

Suits virtualization and database workloads

The twin 8-core CPUs and large memory capacity handle multi-VM consolidation, SQL clusters and middleware tiers that benefit from balanced compute and storage IOPS. The SATA SSD array and H730P RAID options cover redundancy and performance without extra drive cages. Buyers who need GPU acceleration should look at other platforms.

Dual Xeon Silver 4110 with 128 GB DDR4

Two Silver 4110 processors provide 16 total cores at 2.1 GHz base and 3.0 GHz turbo on the LGA 3647 platform with C620 chipset. The 128 GB DDR4 2400 MHz ECC configuration occupies eight of 24 slots, leaving room to reach the 3 TB maximum. This CPU and memory combination is the decisive factor for licensing and workload sizing.

Questions about this item

What DDR4 DIMMs are compatible when I need to expand beyond the 128 GB installed?

The R740 has 24 DDR4 slots supporting registered ECC modules up to 3 TB total capacity.

Which component hits its limit first during sustained all-core workloads on the two Xeon Silver 4110 CPUs?

The 750 W redundant power supplies cap total system draw before the processors reach thermal throttle.

How loud are the fans and how much heat does the 2U chassis push into the rack when running 24/7?

Dual 750 W platinum PSUs and active cooling keep the 2U rack unit within Dell thermal specs for continuous operation.
