Dell R740 1U Server with Gold 6148 CPU
The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 1U rack server built around a single Intel Gold 6148 processor running at 2.4 GHz with 20 cores. It ships with 128 GB of DDR4 memory configured as eight 16 GB modules at 2666 MT/s. Four 1.92 TB SAS read-intensive SSDs are installed and managed by an H730P RAID controller. Dual redundant 1100 W power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management are included.
Suited for dense virtualisation hosts.
This configuration fits environments that need high core counts and fast local storage in a single rack unit, such as virtualisation clusters or database nodes. The 8-core Silver 4110 variant listed in the supplier title is not the processor installed here. Buyers who require multiple GPUs, more than eight 2.5-inch drive bays, or a second CPU socket populated should look at larger chassis options.
Single Gold 6148 20-core processor at 2.4 GHz
The server contains one Intel Gold 6148 CPU with 20 cores and 27.5 MB cache operating at a base frequency of 2.4 GHz. No second processor is installed, so total thread count and memory bandwidth are limited to a single-socket design. This specification determines whether the system meets the licensing and performance requirements of the intended workload.
