DELL PowerEdge R740xd 12LFF 2x Xeon Gold 6226R 128GB DDR4 rack server

Dell PowerEdge R740xd 12-bay rack server

This 2U rack-mount server ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6226R processors running at 2.9 GHz and 128 GB of DDR4 ECC memory. The chassis provides twelve 3.5-inch drive bays and a PERC H730P RAID controller. Remote management is handled by iDRAC9 Enterprise.

Suited for dense storage workloads

The twelve large-form-factor bays and dual-socket design fit backup repositories, software-defined storage nodes and database clusters that need high capacity in a single rack unit. Buyers who need more than two processor sockets or a smaller 1U footprint should consider a different chassis. GPU-accelerated workloads are not supported beyond the integrated graphics.

Twelve 3.5-inch drive bays define the storage

With twelve bays and a SATA interface on the PERC H730P controller, the maximum raw capacity is determined by the largest 3.5-inch drives you install. No drives are included, so the final storage figure depends entirely on your drive selection.
