DELL PowerEdge R740 2U Server
The DELL PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server built for virtualisation and database workloads. It ships with two Intel Gold 6132 processors, each running at 2.6GHz with 14 cores and 19.25M cache. Memory totals 256GB DDR4 across sixteen 16GB PC4-2666 modules. Eight 300GB 10K SAS drives attach to an H730P RAID controller.
Suited to compute-dense racks, not GPU farms
This server suits teams needing high core counts and fast local storage in a compact chassis. The eight 2.5-inch bays are fully populated, leaving no room for additional drives without external enclosures. There is no optical drive and the PCIe Gen 3 slots lack the bandwidth for modern accelerator cards. Buyers who want more storage or GPU compute should look elsewhere.
256GB DDR4 in sixteen populated slots
The memory configuration uses every DIMM slot with 16GB modules at 2666 MT/s. Expanding capacity requires removing existing sticks, so the installed 256GB is also the practical ceiling without a hardware swap. Verify that this capacity matches the workload before purchase.

Questions sur cet article
What chassis infrastructure is required to mount the 2U R740 server?
A standard 19-inch rack with at least 2U of free vertical space and suitable rails is required to install the R740 chassis.
Can the Intel X550 network daughter card connect to existing 1Gb Ethernet switches?
Yes, the X550 provides two 10Gb RJ45 ports and two 1Gb RJ45 ports that auto-negotiate down to 1Gb speeds for legacy switches.
How do I confirm the H730P RAID controller recognises all eight 300GB SAS drives?
During POST or via the iDRAC9 Enterprise interface, check the controller BIOS or storage overview to verify all eight physical disks appear as online.
