Dell PowerEdge R740xd 12-bay server for dense
This 2U rack server holds up to twelve 3.5-inch drives and ships with dual Xeon 5118 processors running at 2.3 GHz. The installed 256 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory supports virtualisation clusters and database nodes that need high core counts and large memory footprints. No drives are included so you can populate the bays with the capacity and redundancy scheme your project demands. The PERC H730P RAID controller manages the SATA backplane for hardware RAID levels up to your chosen configuration.
Sustained load behaviour
Two 12-core Xeon 5118 chips provide 24 threads total, each with 16.5 MB cache, giving steady throughput for multi-threaded applications such as virtualisation hosts or analytics databases. The 256 GB DDR4 ECC memory reduces correction overhead during long compute runs and keeps large working sets in RAM. Dual 1100 W power supplies share the load, so neither unit runs near its limit during extended operation. The integrated 10 GbE 562T two-port adapter maintains consistent network bandwidth without saturating the PCIe bus under heavy east-west traffic.
Build quality and day-to-day connectivity
The chassis measures 36 by 24 by 10 inches and weighs 40 pounds, requiring a standard four-post rack and two-person lift for installation. Twelve front-accessible 3.5-inch bays let you swap drives without tools while the server remains online. Rear I/O includes the 10 GbE 562T adapter, iDRAC9 Enterprise dedicated port, and redundant power inlets for uninterrupted service. An optional rail kit simplifies rack mounting and service access. The PERC H730P controller cabling is pre-routed so drive additions do not require internal re-cabling.

Questions sur cet article
How loud and hot does the R740xd run with two Xeon 5118 CPUs and dual 1100W supplies under constant load?
Dual 1100W supplies and two 2.3GHz Xeon 5118 processors draw significant power; expect noticeable fan noise and heat output in a 12-bay 3.5" chassis during all-day operation.
Which drives and caddies must I already own to populate the 12-bay 3.5" chassis?
The chassis accepts twelve 3.5" SATA drives; you must supply the drives and compatible Dell caddies because none are installed.
Will the PERC H730P controller and 10Gb 562T adapter work with older SATA drives and 1Gb switches I keep?
Yes, the H730P supports legacy SATA drives and the 562T 10Gb adapter auto-negotiates down to 1Gb on older switches.
