Dell PowerEdge R740xd 12-bay server

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd is a 2U rackmount server system equipped with two Intel Xeon Gold 5218 processors running at 2.3GHz and 256GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. It provides twelve 3.5-inch drive bays and a PERC H730P RAID controller for storage expansion.

Suited for dense storage workloads

This configuration suits organisations building high-capacity storage nodes, backup targets or software-defined storage clusters that need many drive slots in a compact chassis. Buyers who require more than two processor sockets or need installed drives out of the box should look at other configurations.

Twelve 3.5-inch drive bays

The defining specification is the twelve 3.5-inch LFF drive bays, which set the maximum raw storage capacity and determine whether the chassis fits the intended density requirement.
