24-bay 2.5-inch rack server for dense storage

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd fits 24 small-form-factor drives in a 2U chassis, making it a compact platform for storage-heavy workloads. Two Xeon Bronze 3204 processors at 1.9 GHz and 32 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory provide baseline compute for file serving, backup targets or hyper-converged nodes. A PERC H730P RAID controller manages the drive array and the iDRAC9 Enterprise licence enables full remote management.

Suited to capacity-first deployments not raw speed

This configuration suits teams that need many drive bays behind a hardware RAID controller and out-of-band management. It is not for buyers who require front-bay speeds beyond the SATA interface, workloads demanding higher single-thread frequency, or deployments that depend on GPU acceleration.

24 drive bays define the storage ceiling

The chassis accepts up to 24 2.5-inch SATA drives, so the maximum raw capacity is set by the number and size of drives you populate. With no drives installed, you must add storage before the server can hold data.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the server is operating correctly after initial power-on?

After power-on, the iDRAC9 Enterprise interface will display system health status, CPU and memory inventory, and RAID controller state once the PERC H730P completes its POST sequence.

Which components are included with this 24SFF chassis and which must be purchased separately?

The chassis includes two Xeon Bronze 3204 processors at 1.9GHz, 32GB DDR4 ECC Registered memory as 16GBx2 modules, PERC H730P RAID controller, 10GbE 2-port 562T adapter, and two 1100W power supplies. Drives and rail kit are not installed.

Which memory capacity should I select if I want to expand beyond the factory 32GB?

The system supports up to 3TB using DDR4 ECC Registered modules; populate remaining DIMM slots in matched pairs per processor to maintain optimal channel performance.
