DELL PowerEdge R740xd 12LFF Xeon Silver 4110 64GB DDR4

12-bay 3.5-inch Rack Server

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd is a 2U rack-mount server built around a single Intel Xeon Silver 4110 processor running at 2.1 GHz with eight cores. It ships with 64 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC H730P RAID controller capable of managing up to twelve 3.5-inch SATA drives. Remote administration is handled by iDRAC9 Enterprise, and dual 1100 W power supplies provide redundancy.

Suited for dense storage workloads

This configuration fits organisations that need a high drive-count platform for backup, archive or software-defined storage clusters using traditional hard drives. The single-socket design and lack of installed drives mean buyers who require dual-processor compute density, pre-populated storage arrays or dedicated GPU acceleration should evaluate alternative chassis.

Twelve 3.5-inch drive bays define capacity

The chassis supports a maximum of twelve 3.5-inch SATA hard drives, which sets the raw storage ceiling for this unit. With no drives included, the buyer must select compatible SATA media to populate the backplane, and the PERC H730P controller will manage the resulting RAID volumes.
