Dense 12-bay compute platform

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd packs twelve 3.5-inch drive bays into a 2U rack frame. Dual Xeon Silver 6130 processors deliver sixteen cores each at 2.1 GHz with 22 MB cache. 256 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory supports virtualization and database workloads. The PERC H730P RAID controller manages SATA storage arrays.

Front-access storage and remote control

Twelve hot-swap bays sit behind a bezel for tool-less drive changes during production hours. A 10 GbE 2-port 562T adapter handles high-throughput network traffic. Dual 1100 W supplies provide redundancy without shutting down the node. iDRAC9 Enterprise gives full out-of-band console access and firmware orchestration.

Redundant cooling keeps thermals steady

Counter-rotating fans draw air across the CPU heatsinks and drive cage, maintaining safe temperatures under sustained load. Acoustic output stays within typical data-centre limits for a 2U dense-storage server. Power draw scales with processor utilisation and drive count, backed by the twin 1100 W units.
