Dual Xeon Gold 6226R Server

The Dell PowerEdge R740 arrives with two Xeon Gold 6226R processors running at 2.9 GHz and 64 GB of DDR4 ECC memory. It is built for organisations that need a 2U rack platform with integrated 10 GbE networking and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management.

Eight-Bay 3.5-Inch Storage Capacity

The chassis supports up to eight 3.5-inch SATA drives managed by a PERC H730P RAID controller with 2 GB cache. No drives are installed, so buyers add the capacity and redundancy level their workloads require. Maximum system memory scales to 3 TB when all DIMM slots are populated.

Dual 750W Power Supplies Included

Redundant 750 W units power the configured components and leave headroom for additional drives or expansion cards. The 10 GbE 562T adapter occupies one PCIe slot, and iDRAC9 provides out-of-band control without consuming host resources. Rails are available separately for rack mounting.

Questions about this item

Will the dual Xeon Gold 6226R processors and 64GB DDR4 work with my existing SATA drives and PERC H730P controller?

Yes, the server includes a PERC H730P RAID controller with SATA interface support, and the two Xeon Gold 6226R CPUs at 2.9GHz with 16 cores each provide 22MB cache per processor for compatible drive arrays.

How can I verify the iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management and 10GB Ethernet are functioning after installation?

Access the iDRAC9 web interface via its dedicated network port to confirm Enterprise license status, then check the 562T dual-port 10GB adapter link lights and run the built-in diagnostics from the lifecycle controller.

Which components ship with the R740 8LFF chassis and what must I purchase separately?

The unit includes 2x Xeon Gold 6226R processors, 64GB DDR4 ECC registered memory, PERC H730P controller, 2x 750W power supplies, 562T 10GB dual-port adapter, and iDRAC9 Enterprise; drives and rail kit are not included.
