1U Rack Server with Gold 6148

The Dell EMC PowerEdge R740 is a 1U rack server built around a single Intel Gold 6148 processor running at 2.4 GHz with 20 cores and 27.5 MB cache. It ships with 32 GB of DDR4 memory configured as two 16 GB modules at 2666 MT/s. This system targets organisations deploying dense compute workloads in standard rack environments.

20-core Gold 6148 CPU

The installed Gold 6148 delivers 20 cores at 2.4 GHz, making core count the decisive specification for heavily threaded applications such as virtualisation hosts or database nodes. Only one processor is populated, leaving the second socket available for future expansion if the workload grows beyond the current thread capacity.

H730P RAID and iDRAC9 Enterprise

The H730P controller manages the four 1.92 TB SAS RI SSDs with hardware RAID, providing redundancy options for the installed storage. iDRAC9 Enterprise enables full remote management including virtual console and power control without requiring physical access. Rails, bezel and power cords are included, while the 1100 W redundant power supplies support continuous operation.
