Dell PowerEdge R740 1U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 1U rack server equipped with two Intel Gold 6126 processors, each running at 2.6GHz with 12 cores. It ships with 64GB of DDR4 memory in a 4x 16GB configuration and eight 1.92TB SAS SSDs managed by an H730P RAID controller. Redundant 1100W power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management are included.

Suited for dense compute

This configuration suits organisations that need high core counts and all-flash capacity within a 1U footprint. Buyers who require more than eight drive bays, a larger memory footprint or a different processor tier should evaluate other platforms.

Eight 2.5-inch drive bays define the storage limit

The chassis provides exactly eight 2.5-inch bays, which are fully populated with the installed 1.92TB SAS SSDs. No additional internal drives can be added without removing existing ones, so capacity planning must account for this hard ceiling.

Questions about this item

Does the server ship with rails so I can mount it in my 19-inch rack?

Yes, rails are included with the R740 chassis so the 1U unit fits a standard 19-inch rack.

Can the H730P controller manage the eight 1.92TB SAS SSDs together with older SAS hard drives I already own?

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

How do I confirm both Gold 6126 processors and all 64GB of DDR4 are detected after first boot?

Open the iDRAC9 Enterprise interface or the BIOS POST screen; both will list two 12-core CPUs and four 16GB modules at 2666 MT/s.
