Rack server for dense compute

The Dell EMC PowerEdge R740 fits a 1U rack space and delivers two Intel Silver 4210R processors, each with 10 cores at 2.4 GHz. With 128 GB of DDR4 memory installed across eight 16 GB modules, it suits virtualisation hosts, database nodes and high-throughput applications that need strong multi-thread performance in a compact form factor.

Tool-less rails and cabled drives

The chassis includes sliding rails for quick rack mounting and the four 1.92 TB SAS SSDs connect directly to the H730P RAID controller. Common issues arise when the controller firmware is older than the drive firmware, so verify both are current before creating arrays. The 1100 W redundant power supplies are hot-swap, but ensure each feeds a separate circuit.

Check PCIe slots and network needs

The system offers up to eight PCIe Gen 3 slots; confirm the quantity and length match any add-in cards you plan to install. The integrated Intel X550 provides two 10 Gb RJ45 and two 1 Gb RJ45 ports, so verify your switch ports and cabling support those speeds. iDRAC9 Enterprise is licensed for remote management.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management is responding after power-on?

Connect to the iDRAC9 Enterprise network port, log in with the default credentials, and verify the dashboard shows both Silver 4210R CPUs, 128GB DDR4, and the four 1.92TB SAS SSDs as healthy.

What ships inside the chassis and which items must be sourced separately?

The 1U R740 ships with bezel, rails, power cords, 1100W redundant PSUs, H730P controller, 128GB DDR4 in eight 16GB modules, two Silver 4210R processors, and four 1.92TB SAS SSDs; additional 2.5" drives or PCIe cards are not included.

Should I choose this 128GB, 4x 1.92TB SAS SSD configuration or a version with different memory or drive count?

This unit is built with 128GB DDR4 across eight 16GB DIMMs and four 1.92TB SAS RI SSDs in the 8-bay chassis; select it when that exact memory and capacity mix matches the workload.
