Dense 2U storage server

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd chassis fits twelve 3.5-inch drive bays in a 2U rack footprint. Dual Xeon Silver 4210 processors run at 2.2 GHz and 768 GB of DDR4 ECC memory is installed. A PERC H730P controller and dual 1100 W supplies complete the platform.

Suits capacity-first workloads

This configuration targets archives, backups and media libraries that need many large disks and high memory density. Buyers who need all-flash speed or GPU compute should evaluate other platforms. The system ships without drives so storage can be tailored to the task.

12-bay 3.5-inch chassis

The defining specification is the twelve large-form-factor bays that set the storage ceiling. With 768 GB DDR4 and two 10-core CPUs the server balances memory bandwidth and drive count for dense capacity tiers.

Questions about this item

How much power do the two 1100W supplies draw when the R740xd runs 24/7?

Each supply is rated at 1100W; actual draw depends on the drives and workload you install.

Which drives and rails must I already have to populate the 12 3.5-inch bays?

The chassis accepts 12 SATA 3.5-inch drives and the PERC H730P controller manages them; rail kits are available on request.

Will the integrated graphics and iDRAC9 work with the older monitors and KVM switches I already own?

Integrated graphics provide basic video output and iDRAC9 gives remote console access over the network.
