DELL PowerEdge R740xd 12LFF 2x Xeon 5118 64GB DDR4 No Drive Rack Server

Rack server with twelve 3.5-inch bays

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd is a 2U rack-mount server system built for storage-dense workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon 5118 processors running at 2.3 GHz and 64 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. A PERC H730P RAID controller and a 10 GbE 562T dual-port adapter are installed. No drives are included.

Suited for archive and capacity-focused deployments

This configuration suits buyers who need twelve large-form-factor drive bays for high-capacity SATA storage behind a hardware RAID controller. It is not for buyers who require 2.5-inch bay density, GPU compute slots or a different processor generation. The fixed two-socket limit also rules out future CPU expansion beyond the installed pair.

Twelve 3.5-inch drive bays define the storage

The chassis provides exactly twelve 3.5-inch bays, setting the maximum number of spinning disks or SATA SSDs the server can hold. That bay count is the single specification that decides whether this platform matches a capacity target or whether a different chassis is required.
