DELL PowerEdge R740xd 2U rack server 2x Xeon Gold 6134 3.2GHz 8C 768GB DDR4 2x 800GB SSD H730P

DELL PowerEdge R740xd 2U Rack Server

This 2U rack server combines two Intel Xeon Gold 6134 processors running at 3.2 GHz with 768 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory. The system supports up to two processors and includes a Dell PERC H730P controller with 2 GB cache. Dual 800 GB SATA SSDs provide initial storage capacity. Dual 1100 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC 9 Enterprise management are standard. Ready Rails and a front bezel are included.

Ideal for Storage-Dense Virtualisation

The 24-bay 2.5-inch chassis suits software-defined storage, virtual desktop infrastructure and service-provider workloads that need high drive density in 2U. Dual 10 Gb SFP+ and dual 1 GbE ports handle converged traffic. Organisations needing GPU acceleration or a 1U form factor should evaluate other platforms. The installed memory occupies all 24 DIMM slots, so expansion requires module replacement.

24-Bay 2.5-Inch Drive Configuration

The chassis provides 24 front-accessible 2.5-inch bays connected through the H730P controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. This bay count determines how many additional SATA or SAS drives can be added without external enclosures. Buyers needing more than 24 internal drives must consider external storage solutions. The two installed 800 GB SSDs occupy two of these bays.
