24-bay rack server for storage density

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd chassis holds twenty-four 2.5-inch drive bays behind a single Xeon Gold 6126 processor running at 2.6 GHz with twelve cores. It targets organisations that need high local capacity in a 2U form factor without committing to a dual-socket layout immediately.

256 GB DDR4 with 3 TB ceiling

The system ships with 256 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory installed and the motherboard supports up to 3 TB when both processor sockets are populated. A single CPU limits the active memory channels, so maximum throughput and full capacity require the second processor option.

PERC H730P RAID and 10 GbE networking

A Dell PERC H730P controller manages the SAS backplane while a dual-port 10 GbE 562T adapter handles high-speed fabric connectivity. Dual 1100 W supplies provide redundancy, and iDRAC9 Enterprise enables remote lifecycle management. No drives or rail kit are included by default.

Questions about this item

Will the single Xeon Gold 6126 at 2.6GHz with 12 cores leave enough headroom if I add a second processor later?

The chassis supports up to two processors; adding a second Xeon Gold 6126 doubles the core count to 24 while keeping the same 2.6GHz speed and 19.25MB cache per chip.

How can I confirm the PERC H730P RAID controller and iDRAC9 Enterprise are functioning after the firmware update?

During POST the H730P BIOS reports drive detection and RAID status, and iDRAC9 shows a green health LED plus a reachable web interface on its dedicated network port.

Which drive caddies and rails come with the 24-bay 2.5-inch chassis, and what must I source separately?

The unit ships with two 1100W power supplies and the 10GbE 562T adapter installed; 2.5-inch drive caddies and rail kit are not included and must be ordered separately.
