DELL PowerEdge R740xd 12LFF 2x Xeon Silver 6130 1TB DDR4

Dell PowerEdge R740xd 12-bay server

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd is a 2U rack server built around two Intel Xeon Silver 6130 processors running at 2.1GHz. It ships with 1TB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC H730P RAID controller. The 12x 3.5-inch drive bays support SATA hard drives for high-capacity storage workloads. Integrated iDRAC9 Enterprise provides remote management.

Fits a 2U rack with dual 1100W supplies

The chassis occupies a standard 2U rack space and includes two 1100W power supplies for redundancy. Twelve front-accessible 3.5-inch bays accept SATA drives, while the H730P controller handles RAID duties. A 10GbE 562T dual-port adapter is installed for network connectivity. An optional rail kit is available for mounting.

Dual CPUs and 1TB memory draw sustained power

Two 16-core Xeon processors and 1TB of DDR4 memory create a steady thermal load that the dual power supplies and internal fans manage under normal operation. The 10GbE adapter adds to power draw during heavy traffic. No drives are installed, so storage heat depends on the SATA drives you add. iDRAC9 monitors temperatures and fan speeds remotely.
