DELL PowerEdge R740xd 12LFF 2x Xeon Silver 4210 256GB DDR4

Server chassis with twelve 3.5-inch bays

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd is a 2U rack server that holds up to twelve large-form-factor drives and ships with dual Xeon Silver 4210 processors running at 2.2GHz. It includes 256GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC H730P RAID controller. No drives are installed so you can populate the bays with the capacity and speed your workload requires.

Suits storage-heavy workloads needing dense drive

This configuration fits databases, backup targets and media archives that benefit from twelve 3.5-inch bays and hardware RAID. Buyers who want a smaller chassis, fewer drive slots or a single-socket platform should look at a different form factor. The integrated graphics and 10GbE adapter cover basic console and network needs without extra cards.

Twelve 3.5-inch drive bays define the storage

The chassis accepts exactly twelve 3.5-inch SATA drives, so total raw capacity is limited by the number and size of drives you install. If your project needs more than twelve spindles or requires 2.5-inch bay density, this server will not meet that requirement.
