High-density 2U storage server

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd is a 2U rack server built for workloads that demand dense local storage. It pairs two Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors with 64 GB of DDR4 ECC memory and a PERC H730P RAID controller. Twenty-four 800 GB SATA SSDs fill every front bay, delivering high-capacity flash storage in a compact chassis.

Suited for storage-heavy virtualisation.

This platform suits software-defined storage clusters, virtual desktop infrastructure and service-provider environments that need many drives and dual-socket compute. Organisations requiring more than two processors, more than 24 drive bays in 2U, or memory configurations beyond 3 TB will need a different server class.

24-bay 2.5-inch SATA front panel

The defining specification is the 24-bay 2.5-inch SATA front panel, which fixes both the maximum drive count and the interface type. If your design calls for a different bay count, a different drive form factor, or a non-SATA protocol, this chassis will not meet the requirement.
