Dense 2U storage server

The PowerEdge R740xd is a 2U rack server built for storage-heavy workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon Silver 4110 processors at 2.1 GHz, 768 GB of DDR4 ECC memory and a PERC H730P controller. Twenty-four 2.5-inch drive bays and dual 1100 W platinum supplies complete the platform.

Ideal for capacity-first deployments

This configuration suits software-defined storage clusters, virtual desktop infrastructure or service-provider hosts that need many SAS or SATA drives in a compact rack unit. Buyers who need GPU compute density or a smaller 1U footprint should evaluate other chassis designs.

24-bay 2.5-inch SAS/SATA backplane

The single specification that decides fit is the twenty-four 2.5-inch hot-swap bays served by a 12 Gb/s SAS controller. If the workload requires that many drive slots in 2U, this server matches; otherwise a different bay count or form factor is required.
