2U rack server for virtualization workloads

The Dell EMC PowerEdge R740 fits 2U of rack space and provides two Intel Gold 6132 processors. Each CPU runs at 2.6 GHz with 14 cores and 19.25 MB cache. The system ships with 32 GB of DDR4 memory in a 2x 16 GB configuration and includes an H730P RAID controller.

Suits buyers needing dense compute

This server targets environments that run multiple virtual machines or containers and want dual 10 Gb RJ45 ports from the Intel X550 controller. It does not suit buyers who want more storage than six 120 GB SATA SSDs provide, nor those who require an internal optical drive for media installation.

Six 120 GB SATA SSDs on an H730P controller

The installed drives deliver 120 GB each over SATA and are managed by the H730P RAID card. Six of the eight 2.5 inch bays are populated, leaving two bays free for additional drives. The storage layout is the deciding factor for capacity-sensitive deployments.
