2U rack server with 24-bay storage

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd is a 2U rack-mounted server system designed for high-capacity storage workloads. It ships with 24 installed 2.5-inch SAS hard drives, each providing 2.4TB of space. The platform suits software-defined storage clusters, service-provider infrastructure and virtual desktop deployments.

Dual Xeon Silver 4116 with 768GB DDR4

Two Intel Xeon Silver 4116 processors deliver 24 total cores at a base frequency of 2.1GHz with a 3.0GHz turbo boost. The 768GB of registered ECC DDR4 memory occupies all 24 DIMM slots, leaving no room for further expansion. This configuration fits buyers who need maximum memory now; builders who want headroom for future memory growth should consider a system with free slots.

PERC H730P controller with 24 SAS drives

The Dell PERC H730P 2GB storage controller manages the 24 SAS hard drives and supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. Network connectivity comes from an Intel X520/I350 daughter card providing two 1GbE and two 10Gb SFP+ ports. Remote management is handled by iDRAC9 Enterprise. Redundant 1100-watt platinum power supplies and ready rails are included.
