Built for virtualization and data workloads
The Dell PowerEdge R740XD is a rack-mount server system designed for business workloads such as virtualization, databases, backups and application hosting. Two Intel Xeon Gold 6152 processors deliver 44 cores at 2.10 GHz for dependable multi-threaded performance. 256GB of DDR4 memory across 24 slots supports multiple services and virtual machines simultaneously.
H740P controller and dual-speed networking
The included H740P storage controller simplifies setup and day-to-day management of the eight drive trays. Dual 10Gb SFP+ ports and four 1Gb RJ45 connections provide flexible network integration for storage and application traffic. Hot-swap fans and redundant hot-swap power supplies maintain uptime during component replacement.
Suits virtualization hosts
This configuration suits teams running hypervisors, database clusters or backup targets that benefit from high core counts and large memory capacity. Buyers who need GPU acceleration, single-thread frequency above 3 GHz or a tower form factor should evaluate alternative platforms.
