Dell PowerEdge R740 Dual Gold 6126 Server

This 2U rack server ships with two Intel Gold 6126 processors, each running at 2.6 GHz with 12 cores. It is configured with 512 GB of DDR4 memory across 16 modules of 32 GB PC4-2400. The system includes a PERC H730P RAID controller and six 800 GB SAS SSDs installed in an 8-bay 2.5 inch chassis.

Virtualisation Hosts and Database Nodes

The dual 12-core CPUs and large memory capacity suit virtualisation clusters, in-memory databases and compute-heavy workloads. Buyers who need more than eight 2.5 inch drive bays or a different storage protocol should consider other configurations.

512 GB DDR4 Installed Memory

The server arrives with 512 GB of DDR4 memory fully populated in 16 DIMM slots. This capacity determines how many virtual machines or how large a dataset can run without adding modules.

Questions about this item

What rack height and drive bay size does the R740 need for mounting?

The R740 is a 2U rack server that fits a standard 19-inch rack and provides 8x 2.5" drive bays.

How are the 16x 32GB DDR4 modules installed, and what step is often missed?

All 16 DIMM slots are populated with 32GB PC4-2400 modules; the step often missed is verifying the memory configuration in the BIOS after installation.

When will the 800GB SAS SSDs or the 1100W redundant power supplies need replacement?

The 6x 800GB SAS SSDs should be monitored via the H730P controller for wear; the 1100W redundant PSUs typically require replacement after several years of continuous operation.
