Dual Gold 6132 14-core compute

The Dell EMC PowerEdge R740 ships with two Intel Gold 6132 processors running at 2.6 GHz, each delivering 14 cores and 19.25 MB cache. The 128 GB DDR4 memory is populated as eight 16 GB modules at 2666 MT/s. This configuration targets virtualisation hosts, database nodes and dense compute clusters that need strong per-socket performance in a single rack unit.

Sustained throughput on H730P

Four 1.92 TB SAS RI SSDs sit behind the H730P RAID controller, providing consistent read-heavy throughput for mixed workloads. The 1100 W redundant power supplies maintain stable delivery during extended compute runs, while up to eight PCIe Gen 3 slots allow additional networking or acceleration cards without throttling the primary storage path.

1U chassis with iDRAC9 Enterprise

The 1U rack frame occupies minimal datacentre space and includes sliding rails for straightforward installation. Front-access 2.5-inch drive bays support up to eight devices, leaving four slots open for future expansion. Integrated iDRAC9 Enterprise enables full remote power, console and firmware management without a dedicated KVM, simplifying day-to-day operations.

Questions about this item

How much power do the dual 1100 W PSUs draw when the two 14-core CPUs run at 2.6 GHz all day?

The server includes redundant 1100 W power supplies; actual draw varies with workload and ambient temperature.

Which rails and cables must I already have to mount and power this 1 U chassis?

Rails and power cords are included in the box, so no extra mounting or cabling is required.

Can the H730P controller manage the four 1.92 TB SAS SSDs together with older 2.5-inch SAS drives I might keep?

Yes, the H730P supports mixed SAS SSD and HDD arrays across the eight 2.5-inch drive bays.
