Dell PowerEdge R740xd 24-bay 2U server

This 2U rack server is a dual-socket platform built for storage density. It carries two Intel Xeon Silver 4110 processors at 2.1 GHz with eight cores each and 64 GB of DDR4 memory. Twenty-four 2.5-inch drive bays and a PERC H730P controller give it room for large SAS or SATA arrays.

Suits software-defined storage

The chassis targets workloads that need many drives and redundant 1100 W power supplies in a compact rack footprint. Quad-port networking with two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ links plus iDRAC9 Enterprise management supports service-provider environments. Buyers who need installed drives or a single-processor configuration should consider different systems.

24 drive bays with H730P RAID controller

The PERC H730P provides 2 GB cache and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 modes across all twenty-four SAS or SATA bays. Memory scales to 3 TB across twenty-four DDR4 slots when workloads grow beyond the factory 64 GB.
