Dell PowerEdge R740 8LFF Server

This Dell PowerEdge R740 rack server ships with two Intel Xeon Platinum 8260L processors at 2.4GHz and 768GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. The 8LFF chassis supports up to eight 3.5-inch SATA drives through a PERC H730P RAID controller. Remote management is handled by iDRAC9 with an Enterprise licence.

Suits compute-dense workloads.

The dual 24-core CPUs and large memory pool suit virtualisation hosts, database nodes and HPC clusters that need many threads and RAM capacity. Buyers who want more storage bays than eight 3.5-inch slots or who need GPU-accelerated workloads should look at a different chassis.

768GB DDR4 installed, expandable to 3TB

The system arrives with 768GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory installed across the available DIMM slots. Maximum supported capacity is 3TB, so the next upgrade step depends on the DIMM density you choose.

Questions about this item

Will the 2.4 GHz Xeon Platinum 8260L processors work with my existing DDR4 memory modules?

The server includes 768 GB of DDR4 ECC Registered memory across its slots. Your existing DDR4 modules must match ECC Registered type and supported speeds to function correctly alongside the installed CPUs.

How can I confirm the PERC H730P RAID controller and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management are working after setup?

During boot, the PERC H730P BIOS will display its firmware version and detected drives. iDRAC9 Enterprise becomes accessible via its network IP; log in to verify license status, sensor readings, and remote console operation.

What components are included in the box and what must I purchase separately for the 8 LFF 3.5-inch drive bays?

The chassis ships with 2 Xeon Platinum 8260L CPUs, 768 GB DDR4 RAM, PERC H730P controller, dual 750 W power supplies, and a 10 GbE 562T adapter. No 3.5-inch drives or rail kit are included; both must be bought separately.
