Half-width blade server
The Dell PowerEdge MX740C is a new half-width blade server for the PowerEdge MX chassis. It carries two Intel Gold 6134 processors at 3.2 GHz, each with 8 cores and 24.75M cache. Memory totals 512 GB of DDR4 in 16 modules of 32 GB PC4-2933. Six 2.4 TB 10K SAS drives connect through an H730P MX controller.
Dense compute nodes
This server suits workloads that need many cores and fast local storage in a single blade slot. Virtualisation hosts, database nodes and high-performance computing clusters fit well. Buyers who require more than six drive bays, a different drive interface or a GPU-dense form factor should look elsewhere.
Six 2.4 TB SAS drives
The installed storage consists of six 2.4 TB 10K SAS drives managed by the H730P MX RAID controller. This capacity and drive type determine whether the blade meets your dataset size and I/O latency requirements.
