Dual Gold 6126 12-core server for virtualisation

The Dell PowerEdge R740 ships with two Intel Gold 6126 processors, each running at 2.6 GHz with 12 cores and 19.25 MB cache. The 2U rack chassis holds 128 GB of DDR4 memory across eight 16 GB modules rated at 2666 MT/s. This configuration targets organisations consolidating workloads or running memory-heavy applications on a single node.

2U chassis with eight 2.5-inch bays

The server provides eight front-accessible 2.5-inch drive bays, currently populated with two 960 GB SAS SSDs behind an H730P RAID controller. Network connectivity comes from an Intel X550 adapter delivering two 10 Gb RJ45 ports and two 1 Gb RJ45 ports. Up to eight PCIe Gen 3 slots allow additional I/O cards, and dual 1100 W redundant power supplies support continuous operation.

iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management

Integrated iDRAC9 Enterprise enables out-of-band monitoring, firmware updates and virtual console access without an operating system. The shipment includes a non-LCD front bezel, sliding rails and power cords for immediate rack installation. No optical drive is fitted, so operating-system deployment relies on network boot or USB media.
