DELL PowerEdge R740 2U Rack Server 2x Silver 4210R 10C 2.4GHz 128GB DDR4 4x 800GB SAS SSD H730P

DELL PowerEdge R740 2U Server

The Dell EMC PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server built for virtualisation, database and general compute workloads. It ships with dual Intel Silver 4210R processors, each delivering 10 cores at 2.4 GHz. The system includes 128 GB of DDR4 memory across eight 16 GB modules. Four 800 GB SAS SSDs and an H730P RAID controller provide the primary storage array.

Suits dense rack deployments needing dual-socket

This configuration fits organisations that want redundant 1100 W power supplies, iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management and up to eight PCIe Gen 3 expansion slots in a 2U form factor. The eight 2.5-inch drive bays allow further SAS or SSD growth. Buyers who need more than 128 GB of memory, more than eight drive bays or a GPU-ready chassis should evaluate other platforms.

128 GB DDR4 installed memory

The server arrives with 128 GB of DDR4 PC4-2666 memory populated in eight slots. This capacity determines how many virtual machines or database instances can run concurrently without swapping. Verify that the installed total matches the workload requirement before purchase.
