Server Chassis and CPU

This Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack-mount server equipped with one Intel Xeon Silver 4114 processor running at 2.2 GHz with ten cores. It ships with 256 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC H730P RAID controller. The chassis supports up to eight 3.5-inch SATA drives.

Suitable For And Limitations

This configuration suits buyers who need a tested, firmware-updated rack server with high memory capacity and hardware RAID for virtualisation or database workloads. It is not suited for buyers who require a second processor installed, GPU acceleration beyond integrated graphics, or drives included in the shipment.

Drive Bay Count

The chassis provides eight 3.5-inch hot-plug bays connected to the PERC H730P controller, which determines how many SATA drives can be installed and managed in a single array.

Questions about this item

Does the server need any additional drives to be usable?

The chassis has eight 3.5-inch bays but no drives are installed; you must supply SATA drives yourself.

Will my existing SATA drives work with the PERC H730P controller?

The PERC H730P supports SATA drives, so any compatible SATA disks you already own can be used.

How can I verify the iDRAC9 remote management is active after power-on?

Connect to the iDRAC9 network port; the web interface will load once the controller finishes its boot sequence.
