DELL PowerEdge R740 2U 2x Gold 6126 12C 512GB 2x 800GB SAS SSD H730P

2U Rack Server for Dense Compute

The Dell EMC PowerEdge R740 fits two Intel Gold 6126 processors, each with twelve cores at 2.6 GHz, into a 2U chassis. It ships with 512 GB of DDR4 memory across sixteen 32 GB modules and an H730P RAID controller managing two 800 GB SAS SSDs. Eight 2.5-inch drive bays and up to eight PCIe Gen 3 slots provide internal expansion headroom.

Suited for Memory-Intensive Workloads, Not GPU Farms

This configuration targets virtualisation hosts, in-memory databases and high-thread-count applications that benefit from the 512 GB capacity and twenty-four total cores. The dual 10 GbE and dual 1 GbE ports handle moderate network throughput. Buyers needing GPU acceleration or more than eight drive bays should evaluate other platforms.

512 GB DDR4 Decides Fit

The installed 512 GB DDR4 (16 × 32 GB PC4-2400) is the specification that determines whether this server matches the workload. If the application requires more memory than the populated slots provide, a different system or additional DIMMs are necessary.
