24-bay 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd fits 24 small-form-factor drives in a 2U chassis, making it a dense platform for storage-heavy workloads such as software-defined storage, backup targets or media archives. Dual Xeon Gold 6126 processors and 384 GB of DDR4 ECC memory supply the compute and memory bandwidth those workloads demand.

384 GB DDR4 with 3 TB headroom

The system ships with 384 GB of registered DDR4 installed across its memory slots, leaving room to grow toward the 3 TB maximum when datasets expand. Twenty-four 2.5-inch bays accept SATA drives managed by the PERC H730P controller, so capacity scales by adding drives rather than swapping chassis.

iDRAC9 Enterprise and 10 GbE included

An iDRAC9 Enterprise licence provides full remote console, power control and firmware orchestration without extra cost. Dual 1100 W power supplies and a 10 GbE two-port 562T adapter are fitted, while drives and rail kits remain optional and can be specified at order time.

Questions about this item

Will the 24 SFF bays and PERC H730P controller accept my existing 2.5" SATA drives without an adapter?

The 24 SFF bays are built for 2.5" drives and the PERC H730P controller provides native SATA connectivity, so your current SATA drives install directly.

How can I confirm the dual Xeon Gold 6126 CPUs and 384 GB DDR4 ECC memory are recognised after first boot?

Open the iDRAC9 Enterprise interface or enter the BIOS; both will show two 12-core 2.6 GHz Xeon Gold 6126 processors and 384 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory.

The listing says no drives are installed — what else must I supply to make the server operational?

You need to add 2.5" SATA drives for storage; the server already includes two 1100 W power supplies, a PERC H730P RAID controller, dual 10 GbE 562T network ports and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management.
