2U Rack Server with Dual Silver 4210R

The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Silver 4210R processors, each running at 2.4 GHz with 10 cores. It ships with 32 GB of DDR4 memory in a two-DIMM configuration and six 480 GB SATA SSDs managed by an H730P RAID controller. Remote administration is handled by iDRAC9 Enterprise.

Virtualisation and Database Workloads

This server suits teams running virtualised workloads or databases that benefit from dual-socket compute, hardware RAID and redundant 1100 W power supplies. Buyers who need optical-drive support, more than six internal drives or GPU-accelerated compute should evaluate alternative platforms.

H730P RAID Controller Governs Storage Layout

The installed H730P controller manages the six 480 GB SATA SSDs and supports the chassis limit of eight 2.5-inch drive bays. Confirm that this RAID controller matches your storage redundancy and performance requirements before purchase.

Questions about this item

Will my existing SATA SSDs work with the H730P controller in this R740?

Yes, the H730P RAID controller supports SATA SSDs and the chassis provides eight 2.5-inch drive bays, six of which are already populated with 480 GB SATA SSDs.

How can I verify both Silver 4210R processors and the 32 GB DDR4 memory are detected after first boot?

Open the iDRAC9 Enterprise web interface or enter the system BIOS; both will show two 10-core CPUs at 2.4 GHz and 32 GB of DDR4-2666 memory configured as two 16 GB modules.

Which items ship with the server and what must I source separately?

The shipment includes the 2U R740 chassis with bezel, sliding rails, two 1100 W redundant power supplies, and power cords; operating-system licences, additional drives, PCIe cards and rack mounting hardware are not included.
