DELL PowerEdge R740xd 24SFF 2x Xeon Bronze 3204 1.9GHz 64GB DDR4 No Drive rack server

24-Bay Rack Server with Dual Xeon Bronze 3204

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd is a 2U rack server populated with two Intel Xeon Bronze 3204 processors running at 1.9 GHz. It ships with 64 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC H730P RAID controller. The 24 SFF chassis accepts up to twenty-four 2.5-inch SAS drives, though no drives are installed in this configuration.

Suits dense storage workloads; not for GPU compute

This platform fits organisations that need high drive-count local storage in a standard rack footprint, such as software-defined storage nodes or backup targets. The Bronze 3204 CPUs provide six cores each, so the system is not aimed at heavily threaded compute or virtualisation clusters that demand higher core counts. Buyers who need more storage bays or PCIe accelerator support should evaluate larger chassis options.

Rail installation required.

The server includes dual 1100 W power supplies and an iDRAC9 Enterprise licence for remote management. Mounting rails are available on request and must be fitted before the unit can be secured in a rack. Because no drive caddies or drives are included, installers must source compatible 2.5-inch SAS carriers before populating the front bays. Firmware is updated to the latest stable release prior to dispatch.
