DELL PowerEdge R750 rack server 2x Xeon Silver 4314 2.4GHz 16-core 512GB DDR4 H755 24x 2.5" 2U

2U dual-Xeon rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R750 fits in a standard 2U rack slot and ships with two Intel Xeon Silver 4314 processors running at 2.4 GHz with a 3.4 GHz turbo. Thirty-two cores and 512 GB of DDR4‑2666 registered ECC memory give it the throughput for virtualization clusters, database nodes and analytics workloads. Dual 1400 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC 9 Enterprise keep the platform running and remotely manageable.

Replaces older 2‑socket 2U platforms

Moving from a previous‑generation dual‑socket rack server to this R750 adds PCIe Gen4 bandwidth, 32 DIMM slots and the PERC H755 controller with 8 GB NV cache. The jump is worth it when workloads need more memory channels, faster storage throughput or the 10 GbE SFP+ OCP 3.0 adapter for east‑west traffic. Sites staying on lighter single‑socket or tower systems will not use the extra headroom.

24‑bay 2.5″ storage with RAID flexibility

Twenty‑four hot‑swap trays accept SAS or SATA drives, and the H755 supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 for capacity or redundancy tuning. The 512 GB memory ceiling handles large in‑memory databases and dense VM hosts, while the 32‑slot DIMM layout leaves room to grow. Buyers who need 3.5″ drive bays, higher core counts per socket or NVMe‑only backplanes should look at other chassis.
