1U rack server with dual 10-core CPUs

The Dell PowerEdge R740 fits a 1U rack space and carries two Intel Silver 4210R processors, each with ten cores at 2.4 GHz. It ships with 512 GB of DDR4 memory across sixteen 32 GB modules. Four 1.92 TB SAS SSDs are installed on an H730P controller, leaving four additional 2.5-inch bays open for expansion.

Thermal design with redundant 1100 W supplies

Dual 1100 W power supplies share the load and keep the system running if one unit fails. The 1U chassis uses internal airflow paths sized for the installed CPU and memory configuration. Fan speeds adjust automatically through iDRAC9 Enterprise based on real-time temperature readings.

Included rails bezel and remote management

Sliding rails and a front bezel without an LCD panel are supplied for immediate rack mounting. Power cords are also included. iDRAC9 Enterprise provides out-of-band monitoring, virtual console and firmware updates without an operating system. The server is not eligible for export.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 16 DDR4 memory modules into the R740, and which step is most often missed?

Populate all 16 slots evenly across both CPUs; the step most often missed is balancing channels per processor so the 512 GB runs at 2666 MT/s.

What maintenance will the H730P RAID controller and the 4 SAS SSDs need later?

Check the H730P battery health annually and monitor each 1.92 TB SAS SSD for media wear using iDRAC9 Enterprise alerts.

Which limit appears first when the dual Silver 4210R CPUs run sustained workloads?

The 10-core 2.4 GHz processors hit thermal throttle before the 1100 W redundant PSUs or the 8 PCIe Gen 3 slots saturate.
