Dense 24-bay 2.5" server for storage-heavy workloads

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd chassis fits twenty-four 2.5-inch drive bays in a 2U rack footprint. Two Xeon Gold 6134 processors at 3.2 GHz and 1.5 TB of DDR4 ECC registered memory are installed. A PERC H730P RAID controller and a dual-port 10 GbE 562T adapter provide connectivity for demanding storage tasks.

Suits databases and virtualisation clusters

Organisations running SQL clusters, Hadoop nodes or backup targets benefit from the high bay count and large memory ceiling. Buyers who need GPU acceleration, single-thread frequency above 3.2 GHz, or a smaller 1U form factor should evaluate other platforms.

Slides into standard rails with tool-less latches

The server weighs 40 lb and measures 36 x 24 x 10 in, so two people can rack it safely. Drives are not included; populate bays with SAS drives that match the PERC H730P firmware list to avoid controller errors. Remember to seat all 1536 GB of memory evenly across both CPU sockets for full bandwidth.

Questions about this item

What type of drives do I need to populate the 24 SFF bays in this PowerEdge R740xd?

The chassis accepts 24 2.5-inch SAS drives; no drives are installed, so you must supply compatible SAS HDDs or SSDs for the PERC H730P controller.

Will the dual Xeon Gold 6134 CPUs at 3.2 GHz work with my existing DDR4 ECC registered modules?

The system already contains 1.5 TB of DDR4 ECC registered memory across 24 slots, so any additional modules must match that DDR4 ECC registered specification to function correctly.

How can I confirm the PERC H730P RAID controller and iDRAC9 Enterprise are operating after installation?

During POST the H730P BIOS will display detected drives and RAID status, while iDRAC9 Enterprise provides a dedicated network interface for remote health monitoring and firmware verification.
