DELL PowerEdge R740xd 24SFF 2x Xeon Silver 4210 2.2GHz 384GB DDR4 No Drive

24-Bay Rack Server with Dual Xeon Silver 4210

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd is a 2U rack-mount server system equipped with two Intel Xeon Silver 4210 processors running at 2.2GHz. It ships with 384GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC H730P RAID controller. The chassis supports up to twenty-four 2.5-inch SATA drive bays, though no drives are installed. Remote management is handled by iDRAC9 with an Enterprise licence, and dual 1100W power supplies provide redundancy.

Ideal for Dense Storage Workloads

This configuration suits organisations building high-capacity storage arrays, backup targets or software-defined storage clusters that benefit from the twenty-four-bay density and dual-processor compute. The integrated graphics and 10GbE 562T adapter cover basic console and network needs. Buyers who need GPU acceleration or fibre-channel connectivity should evaluate other platforms. Systems requiring pre-populated drives or a different drive interface will need a custom build.

Dual Xeon Silver 4210 at 2.2GHz with 384GB DDR4

The decisive specification is the pair of ten-core Xeon Silver 4210 CPUs at 2.2GHz combined with 384GB of DDR4 memory. This CPU and memory pairing determines the virtualisation density, database thread count and memory bandwidth available for the workload. If the application demands higher per-core frequency, more memory channels or a different core count, a different processor configuration must be specified.
