2U Rack Server with Dual 14-Core CPUs

The Dell EMC PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server built for compute-intensive workloads. It ships with two Intel Gold 6132 processors, each running at 2.6 GHz with 14 cores and 19.25M cache. The system includes 64GB of DDR4 memory configured as four 16GB modules at 2666 MT/s.

Suited for Virtualisation and Database Tasks

This configuration targets environments that need high core counts and fast local storage, such as virtualisation hosts or database clusters. The eight 800GB SAS SSDs and H730P RAID controller deliver low-latency throughput. Buyers who need GPU acceleration or larger memory footprints should evaluate other platforms.

Eight 800GB SAS SSDs on H730P Controller

The decisive specification is the storage subsystem: eight 800GB SAS SSDs managed by the H730P RAID controller. This combination determines both capacity and performance for I/O-heavy applications. Verify that the SAS interface and drive count match your infrastructure requirements before purchasing.
