Dell PowerEdge R740 1U rack server

This 1U rack server delivers compute density for virtualised workloads and database tiers. It ships with a single Intel processor, 64GB DDR4 memory and four 1.92TB SAS RI SSDs managed by an H730P controller. iDRAC9 Enterprise provides remote management out of the box.

Suited for dense virtualisation

Organisations consolidating VMs or running read-intensive databases benefit from the SAS SSD array and redundant 1100W power supplies. Buyers who need dual processors, more than eight 2.5-inch drive bays or GPU acceleration should look at a different platform.

Single Intel Gold 6132 14-core processor

The installed CPU provides 14 cores at 2.6GHz with 19.25M cache and cannot be upgraded within this configuration. Verify that the core count and clock speed match your licensing and performance requirements before purchase.

Questions about this item

What PCIe generation do the expansion slots use, and what bandwidth does that limit?

The server provides up to eight PCIe Gen 3 slots, capping each lane at 8 GT/s.

What rack space and drive-bay layout does the 1U chassis require?

It occupies 1U of rack height and includes eight 2.5-inch drive bays.

How is the H730P RAID controller installed, and what step is often missed?

The H730P plugs into a dedicated internal slot; the common mistake is forgetting to connect its super-capacitor backup module.
