DELL PowerEdge R740xd 24SFF 2x Xeon Gold 6244 128GB DDR4 rack server

Dense 24-bay storage server

The Dell PowerEdge R740xd fits 24 hot-swap 2.5-inch drives in a 2U rack frame, giving storage-heavy workloads a compact platform. Dual Xeon Gold 6244 processors at 3.6 GHz and 128 GB of DDR4 ECC memory handle database, virtualisation and analytics tasks. Integrated 10 GbE and iDRAC9 Enterprise simplify remote deployment.

24 front 2.5-inch bays with PERC H730P

The single spec that decides fit is the 24 SFF bay count paired with the PERC H730P RAID controller. It supports SAS drives and hardware RAID across all bays, so capacity and redundancy scale together. No drives are installed; you populate the chassis to match the workload.

Dual 1100 W supplies cool 2U density

Two redundant 1100 W power supplies feed the fully loaded chassis while fans ramp only under sustained compute load. In typical mixed read-write operation the system stays within thermal limits without excessive acoustic output. Power draw scales with the drives and CPUs you install.
