Dell PowerEdge R740xd 12-Bay Server

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd is a 2U rack-mount server system built for dense storage workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6134 processors running at 3.2 GHz and 512 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. The chassis provides twelve 3.5-inch drive bays and a PERC H730P RAID controller for SATA hard drives.

Suits virtualisation hosts and storage clusters

This configuration fits organisations that need high core counts and large memory capacity in a compact rack footprint. It is not for buyers who require installed drives, GPU acceleration, or a tower form factor. The integrated graphics and single 10 GbE adapter limit use cases that demand discrete compute or multiple high-speed network links.

Twelve 3.5-inch bays with PERC H730P

The defining specification is the twelve-bay 3.5-inch chassis paired with the H730P controller, which determines how many SATA drives you can install and what RAID levels are supported. Buyers must source drives separately to match capacity and performance targets.
