Dell PowerEdge R740xd 2U server for storage

This 2U rack server combines two Intel Xeon Gold 5118 processors running at 2.3 GHz with twelve cores each, 512 GB of DDR4 ECC memory across sixteen 32 GB modules, and a PERC H730P controller managing twenty-four 2.5 inch drive bays. It is built for software-defined storage clusters, virtual desktop infrastructure and service-provider workloads that need dense internal capacity.

Suits software-defined storage and VDI.

The dual-socket design with 512 GB DDR4 and twenty-four SATA bays serves workloads that scale through storage density and memory capacity. Buyers who need GPU acceleration, high single-thread frequency or PCIe flash storage should evaluate platforms built for those requirements.

Storage controller decides RAID flexibility

The Dell PERC H730P 2 GB controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through mode across all twenty-four bays, so the number of arrays and usable capacity are defined by this card.
