Dell PowerEdge R740 8-bay rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server fitted with one Intel Xeon Silver 4110 processor running at 2.1 GHz. Eight 3.5-inch drive bays and a PERC H730P RAID controller provide flexible local storage. The system ships with 256 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and includes an iDRAC9 Enterprise licence for remote management.

Dual 750 W supplies with updated firmware

Two 750 W power supplies deliver redundant power while the BIOS and firmware are updated to the latest stable version before dispatch. Integrated graphics and a 10 GbE dual-port 562T adapter handle video and network traffic without additional cards. The chassis measures 36 by 24 by 10 inches and weighs 40 pounds.

Supports a second Xeon and up to 3 TB RAM

A second processor socket is available for future CPU expansion and the memory subsystem scales to 3 TB of DDR4. Buyers who need drives installed at purchase or who require a rail kit must arrange those options separately. The server arrives without storage drives, ready for custom configuration.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 256GB DDR4 memory into the PowerEdge R740, and what step is often missed?

Populate the DIMM slots in the order shown on the air-shroud label for the single Xeon Silver 4110; the step most often missed is enabling the new capacity in the BIOS before the OS boots.

What maintenance or replacement will the PERC H730P RAID controller need later?

The H730P uses a lithium-ion battery-backed write cache; plan to replace that battery module every three to five years to keep write-back caching active.

Which limit appears first when the R740 runs sustained loads with the 750W power supplies?

The dual 750W supplies set the power envelope; sustained heavy compute will hit the combined wattage ceiling before thermal limits become critical.
