Dell PowerEdge R740 8-Bay Server

The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack-mount server fitted with two Intel Xeon Silver 4210 processors running at 2.2GHz, each providing 10 cores. It ships with 64GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC H730P RAID controller. The chassis supports up to eight 3.5-inch SATA drive bays, though no drives are installed. Remote management is handled by iDRAC9 with an Enterprise licence.

Check Power, Rails And Network Before Ordering

The unit includes two 750W power supplies and a 10GbE 2-port 562T adapter as standard. Verify that your rack can accommodate the 36 x 24 x 10 inch dimensions and 40-pound weight, and confirm whether you need the optional rail kit. Ensure your PDU connectors match the supply inputs and that your switch supports the 10GbE interfaces.

Suits Virtualisation Hosts And Storage Nodes

This configuration suits buyers who need a dense 8-bay platform for virtualisation, local storage or database workloads with dual-socket performance. It is not for buyers who want drives included, who require GPU compute acceleration, or who need a tower form factor for office deployment.

Questions about this item

Does the server ship with any 3.5-inch drives or must I supply all eight myself?

The unit arrives with zero 3.5-inch drives installed; the eight large-form-factor bays are empty and you must provide every drive you need.

Should I pick the single-processor or dual-processor version for this R740?

This specific configuration already includes two Xeon Silver 4210 processors, so no single-processor choice exists for this listing.

What does the 2.2 GHz clock speed mean when both 10-core CPUs are under full load?

Each of the two Xeon Silver 4210 chips runs at a base 2.2 GHz across all ten cores, giving twenty cores at that frequency before any turbo boost.
