Dell PowerEdge R740 8LFF Server

This Dell PowerEdge R740 rack server arrives with dual Xeon Gold 6134 processors at 3.2GHz and 256GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. The chassis supports eight 3.5-inch drive bays backed by a PERC H730P RAID controller. Remote management is handled through iDRAC9 Enterprise licensing.

Suited for dense storage workloads

Buyers needing GPU compute or high-frequency single-thread performance should look elsewhere. The integrated graphics and lack of installed drives mean this unit is not ready for workstation visualisation or boot-from-local-storage scenarios without further configuration.

Eight 3.5-inch drive bays define capacity

The 8LFF chassis accepts up to eight SATA hard drives, making bay count the primary constraint for storage planning. No drives are included, so the buyer must populate bays to activate the PERC H730P array.

Questions about this item

How much power do the dual Xeon Gold 6134 processors and the 750 W supplies draw under sustained load?

The server ships with two 750 W power supplies and two Xeon Gold 6134 CPUs running at 3.2 GHz; actual draw depends on workload and drive population.

Which drive caddies and cables are required to populate the 3.5-inch bays?

The chassis provides eight 3.5-inch bays wired to a PERC H730P controller via SATA; Dell 3.5-inch caddies and matching SATA cables are needed for each drive.

Can the integrated graphics and 10 GbE 562T adapter work with older PCIe 3.0 expansion cards?

The system uses integrated graphics and a 10 GbE 562T adapter on PCIe 3.0 lanes; legacy PCIe 3.0 cards will operate at their rated speed.
