Dense storage server

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd chassis holds up to 24 SFF drives and ships with two Xeon Silver 4110 processors at 2.1 GHz, 128 GB DDR4 ECC memory and a PERC H730P RAID controller. Dual 10 GbE ports and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management are included. The unit is sold without drives so you can populate the bays with the SAS capacity you require.

Virtualisation and database hosts

This configuration suits workloads that need high core counts, large memory ceilings and dense local storage in a 2U rack footprint. Buyers who need GPU compute, a single-socket platform or a tower form factor should evaluate other models. The maximum installed processor count is already reached at two.

24-bay 2.5-inch chassis

The defining specification is the 24 SFF drive bays combined with the PERC H730P controller, which determines how many SAS drives you can attach and what RAID levels are supported. Verify that your storage plan fits within this bay count and controller capability before ordering.

Questions about this item

What 2.5" drives do I need to populate the 24 SFF bays?

The chassis accepts 24 x 2.5" SAS drives; the installed PERC H730P controller manages them.

Will my existing SAS drives work with the PERC H730P controller?

The PERC H730P connects to the SAS backplane, so compatible SAS drives will be recognised.

How can I verify the dual Xeon Silver 4110 CPUs and 128 GB DDR4 are operating correctly?

iDRAC9 Enterprise shows CPU health, memory status and firmware versions in its dashboard.
