Dell PowerEdge R740 rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 1U rack server built around two Intel Gold 6126 processors. Each CPU provides twelve cores at 2.6 GHz with 19.25 MB cache. The system ships with 32 GB of DDR4 memory in two 16 GB modules and four 1.92 TB SAS SSDs managed by an H730P RAID controller.

PCIe Gen 3 and SAS storage limits

The platform offers up to eight PCIe Gen 3 expansion slots for additional networking or accelerator cards. Storage is confined to the eight 2.5-inch drive bays and the SAS interface of the installed SSDs. Network connectivity uses an Intel X550 controller providing two 10 Gb RJ45 ports and two 1 Gb RJ45 ports.

Replaces older 1U servers needing more cores

This configuration replaces earlier 1U servers that lack sufficient core count or all-flash storage for virtualisation workloads. The jump is worth it when workloads demand twenty-four threads and low-latency SAS SSDs within a single rack unit. It is not suited for buyers who need greater memory capacity or additional drive bays beyond the eight-bay chassis.
