DELL PowerEdge R740xd 12LFF 2x Xeon Silver 4114 2.2GHz 384GB DDR4 No Drive

Server platform with twelve 3.5-inch bays

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd is a 2U rack server built around two Intel Xeon Silver 4114 processors running at 2.2 GHz. Each CPU delivers ten cores and 13.75 MB of cache, giving twenty cores total. The system ships with 384 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC H730P RAID controller. No drives are installed and the 12 LFF bays accept SATA hard drives.

Suits storage-dense workloads.

This configuration targets users who need high internal capacity for archival, backup or software-defined storage workloads. The twelve 3.5-inch slots and integrated 10 GbE 562T adapter support throughput-oriented deployments. Buyers who require GPU acceleration or single-thread frequency above 2.2 GHz should look at different platforms.

Twelve 3.5-inch drive bays define capacity ceiling

The chassis provides twelve LFF bays connected to the PERC H730P controller over SATA. That bay count is the hard limit on raw storage before external enclosures are added. Maximum memory reaches 3 TB across the remaining DIMM slots, but the installed 384 GB and fixed dual-CPU layout set the compute baseline.
