Dell PowerEdge R740 1U server with Gold 6148

This 1U rack server ships with a single Intel Gold 6148 processor running at 2.4 GHz with 20 cores and 27.5 MB cache. It includes 64 GB of DDR4 memory across four 16 GB modules at 2666 MT/s. The chassis provides eight 2.5-inch drive bays and up to eight PCIe Gen 3 slots for expansion.

Suited for dense compute and virtualisation hosts

The 20-core CPU and 64 GB RAM fit workloads that need strong per-socket performance in a 1U form factor. Buyers who want dual-socket scaling or larger memory capacity should look at a different configuration. The two installed 1.92 TB SAS SSDs limit local storage to under 4 TB unless more drives are added.

Single-socket Gold 6148 with 20 cores

The installed processor is the defining specification: one Gold 6148 at 2.4 GHz with 20 cores and 27.5 MB cache. No second CPU is populated, so maximum core count and memory channels remain at the single-socket limit. This determines whether the server matches the buyer's performance target.

Questions about this item

Does the 1U chassis include rails for a standard rack?

The listing states that rails are included with the server, so the 1U R740 can be mounted in a compatible rack using the supplied hardware.

What is the correct order for installing the Gold 6148 processor and the four 16 GB DDR4 modules?

Install the single Gold 6148 CPU into the socket first, then populate the four memory slots with the 16 GB DDR4 modules at 2666 MT/s.

When will the 1100 W redundant power supplies or the H730P controller battery need replacement?

The 1100 W redundant PSUs and the H730P RAID controller battery are the components most likely to require replacement after extended use.
