PowerEdge R740 8LFF dual-Xeon server
This 2U rack server ships with two Intel Xeon Silver 4108 processors at 1.8GHz and 128GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. It targets IT teams that need a dense, 3.5-inch drive platform for virtualisation, database or file-serving workloads. The chassis supports up to eight hot-swap bays and two processors maximum.
128GB DDR4 with 3TB headroom
The installed 128GB fills a fraction of the 3TB maximum, leaving ample room for memory-heavy applications or future VM density increases. Eight 3.5-inch SATA bays connect to a PERC H730P RAID controller, so storage capacity scales with drive selection. CPU headroom is fixed at the two-socket limit.
iDRAC9 Enterprise and 10GbE adapter
Remote management comes with an iDRAC9 Enterprise licence, enabling full out-of-band control, virtual console and automation APIs. A dual-port 10GbE 562T adapter provides high-throughput networking without extra cards. Dual 750W supplies deliver redundancy, while rail kits are available on request for rack mounting.

Questions about this item
Will the 8-bay 3.5-inch chassis accept the SATA drives I already own?
Yes, the eight large-form-factor bays take 3.5-inch SATA drives and the PERC H730P controller manages them in RAID or JBOD mode.
How can I confirm the dual Xeon Silver 4108 processors and 128 GB DDR4 are recognised after first boot?
Open the iDRAC9 Enterprise web console, go to the hardware inventory page and verify two CPUs at 1.8 GHz and 128 GB of registered ECC memory are listed.
Which components ship inside the box and which must be sourced separately?
The server arrives with two CPUs, 128 GB DDR4, PERC H730P, dual 750 W supplies, 10 Gb dual-port 562T adapter and rails on request; drives and OS licences are not included.
