2U Rack Server with 24 SAS Drives

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Silver 4110 processors running at 2.1 GHz with eight cores each. It includes 256 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across eight 32 GB modules. Twenty-four 1.2 TB 10K SAS hard drives are managed by a PERC H730P controller with 2 GB cache and battery backup.

Suits Dense Storage Workloads, Not All-Flash Needs

This configuration targets software-defined storage, virtual desktop infrastructure and service-provider deployments that prioritise high-capacity rotational media. The dual X520/I350 network daughter card provides two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports for flexible connectivity. Buyers who require solid-state performance or a smaller drive count should consider a different platform.

PERC H730P Controller Defines RAID Options

The installed Dell PERC H730P 2 GB controller supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. Its 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA interface connects directly to the 24 front-accessible 2.5-inch drive bays. Confirm that these RAID modes and the SAS interface match your storage architecture before purchase.
