Dense 12-bay storage server

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd chassis holds twelve 3.5-inch drive bays in a 2U rack form factor. Dual Xeon Bronze 3104 processors at 1.7 GHz provide twelve total cores for multi-threaded workloads. Thirty-two gigabytes of DDR4 ECC registered memory is installed across two 16 GB modules. The PERC H730P RAID controller manages SATA drives with hardware RAID levels.

Verify rack depth and power

Confirm the rack can accommodate the 36-inch depth and that 1100 W redundant power supplies match your PDU connectors. No drives are installed; plan SATA HDD or SSD quantities before deployment. The integrated 10 GbE 562T dual-port adapter requires compatible switch ports. Ensure iDRAC9 Enterprise licensing aligns with your management strategy.

Tool-less rails and front service

Tool-less sliding rails simplify installation and allow full front access to all twelve drive carriers. Hot-swap bays let you replace disks without powering down the server. Redundant 1100 W supplies support non-disruptive maintenance. The iDRAC9 dedicated port gives out-of-band console access even when the host is offline.

Questions about this item

Does the server ship with any 3.5" drives or must I supply all 12 myself?

No drives are installed; the 12-bay chassis accepts up to twelve 3.5" SATA drives that you add separately.

Should I choose the 32 GB DDR4 configuration or plan for the 3 TB maximum?

The unit includes 32 GB DDR4 ECC Registered in two 16 GB modules; you can expand later up to the 3 TB limit using compatible DDR4 DIMMs.

What does the 1.7 GHz Xeon Bronze 3104 speed mean for actual workloads?

Two six-core Xeon Bronze 3104 processors at 1.7 GHz with 8.25 MB cache each provide baseline compute for storage-heavy tasks such as file serving or backup.
