Dell PowerEdge R740 2U Server
The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server built for dense virtualization, private cloud and high-performance computing workloads. It ships with dual Xeon Gold 6130 16-core processors running at 2.10 GHz with turbo up to 3.70 GHz. The system includes 256 GB of DDR4 memory across eight 32 GB modules and 64 TB of enterprise nearline SAS storage on four 16 TB drives. A PERC H730 RAID controller with 2 GB NV cache manages the array.
Compatibility checks before ordering
The server uses a 2U rack form factor and includes a rail kit for standard cabinet mounting. Verify that your rack provides sufficient depth and airflow for a 2U chassis. Four 3.5-inch drive bays are occupied by the included 16 TB SAS drives, so confirm any additional storage requirements against remaining bays. The Broadcom BCM5720 quad-port 1GbE controller handles network connectivity; ensure your switch ports match this interface. Memory and drives are supplied separately and require installation before deployment.
Thermals, noise and power draw
Redundant hot-swappable power supplies maintain uptime during a module replacement and share load during normal operation. The 2U chassis uses managed fan curves that ramp with CPU and drive temperatures, so acoustic output rises under sustained heavy workloads. Dual 16-core Xeon processors and 64 TB of spinning drives create a significant continuous power draw; plan circuit capacity and cooling accordingly. iDRAC9 Express provides remote thermal monitoring and alerting without needing host OS access.

Questions sur cet article
What is included in the box and what must I buy separately?
The server ships with a rail kit, dual redundant power supplies, a PERC H730 RAID controller with 2 GB NV cache, a Broadcom BCM5720 quad-port 1GbE controller and iDRAC9 Express. The 8 x 32 GB DDR4 modules and 4 x 16 TB SAS drives are included but not installed; no extra parts are needed for the listed configuration.
How do I choose between the listed memory and storage versions?
This unit is a single configuration: 256 GB via 8 x 32 GB DDR4 PC4-25600 modules and 64 TB via 4 x 16 TB 3.5-inch 7.2K RPM Nearline SAS drives. There are no alternate capacities or speeds to select for this SKU.
What does the 2.10 GHz base clock mean once the server is running real workloads?
Each Xeon Gold 6130 has 16 cores at 2.10 GHz base and can turbo up to 3.70 GHz. With dual sockets you get 32 cores total, so multi-threaded applications can sustain high throughput while the 3200 MHz DDR4 feeds data to all cores.
