2U 8-bay rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R740 fits a 2U form factor and provides eight 3.5-inch drive bays for high-capacity storage. Dual Xeon Silver 4215R processors run at 3.2 GHz with 11 MB cache each. A PERC H730P RAID controller and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management are installed. 16 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory is fitted.

Suited for storage-heavy workloads

Organisations needing dense local storage and out-of-band management will match this configuration. Buyers who require more than 16 GB of memory for virtualisation or databases must add modules up to the 3 TB limit. Builds that depend on GPU acceleration or more than two processors are not supported by this chassis.

Eight 3.5-inch SATA bays

The eight large-form-factor bays accept SATA hard drives or SSDs and connect to the PERC H730P controller for hardware RAID. No drives are included, so capacity and redundancy must be planned before deployment. The 3.5-inch bay count is the primary constraint for storage design.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the PERC H730P RAID controller is recognised after the server boots?

Open the iDRAC9 Enterprise web interface and check the Storage tab — the controller and any connected SATA drives should appear with healthy status.

Which components are already installed and which ones must I supply myself?

The chassis includes two Xeon Silver 4215R CPUs, 16 GB DDR4 ECC registered memory, the PERC H730P RAID controller, a 10 GbE 2-port 562T adapter, dual 750 W power supplies and eight 3.5-inch drive bays; no hard drives or rail kit are installed.

Should I choose the 16 GB DDR4 configuration or plan for the 3 TB maximum?

Start with the installed 16 GB DDR4 if the workload fits; the board supports up to 3 TB so you can add matched DDR4 ECC registered modules later as demand grows.
