2U Rack Server for Scale-Out Workloads

The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server built for virtualisation, database and scale-out deployments. It ships with one Intel Xeon Silver 4110 processor running at 2.1GHz and 128GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. The chassis supports up to two processors and a maximum of 3TB of RAM for future growth.

Eight 3.5-Inch Bays with PERC H730P RAID

The 8LFF chassis provides eight hot-plug 3.5-inch drive bays connected to a Dell PERC H730P RAID controller with SATA interface. No drives are installed, so storage can be configured to match capacity or performance needs. Dual 750W power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management are included for resilient operation.

Single Socket Limits Peak Compute

With one Xeon Silver 4110 installed, the system delivers eight cores and 11MB cache. Workloads that require higher thread counts or maximum memory bandwidth will need the second processor socket populated. Buyers who need more compute density should plan for a second CPU.

Questions about this item

What drive interface does the PERC H730P controller support for the 8x3.5" bays?

The PERC H730P controller uses a SATA interface for the eight 3.5-inch drive bays in this chassis.

What are the physical dimensions and weight of this rack server?

The unit measures 36 by 24 by 10 inches and weighs 40 pounds, fitting a standard 2U rack space.

How is the 10 GbE network adapter installed, and what step is often missed?

The 562T 2-port 10 GbE adapter installs in a PCIe slot; the step often missed is connecting its dedicated power cable if the slot does not supply enough power.
