DELL PowerEdge R740 8LFF 2x Xeon Bronze 3204 384GB DDR4 No Drive

Dual Xeon Bronze 3204 8-Bay Rack Server

The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack-mount server system equipped with two Intel Xeon Bronze 3204 processors running at 1.9 GHz. It arrives with 384 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory installed and a PERC H730P RAID controller managing up to eight 3.5-inch SATA drive bays. Remote administration is handled by an iDRAC9 Enterprise licence and a 10 GbE two-port 562T adapter.

Suited for memory-heavy workloads not drive-heavy

This configuration targets virtualization hosts, database nodes or compute clusters that benefit from high core counts and large RAM capacity but already own or plan to supply their own storage drives. Buyers who need a turnkey array with drives pre-installed, or who require more than two CPU sockets, should look at a different platform.

384 GB DDR4 ECC registered memory installed

The installed memory amount is the decisive figure: it sets the immediate ceiling for virtual-machine density, in-memory databases or large dataset caching before any additional DIMMs are purchased. The chassis supports up to 3 TB total, so expansion headroom exists if the workload outgrows the factory configuration.
