16-bay 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R740 chassis holds up to sixteen 2.5-inch drives in a 2U form factor. It ships with one Intel Xeon Silver 4210 processor running at 2.2 GHz with ten cores and 256 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. The PERC H730P RAID controller manages SATA storage, and dual 1100 W power supplies are included.

Virtualisation hosts needing dense local storage

This configuration suits workloads that benefit from many drive bays and high memory capacity, such as virtualisation clusters or database nodes. Buyers who need a second processor installed or who require drive bays populated before delivery should look at alternative configurations.

PERC H730P RAID controller

The installed PERC H730P controller determines which RAID levels and drive types are supported for the sixteen SATA bays. Verify that its feature set matches your redundancy and performance requirements before purchase.

Questions about this item

Does the PowerEdge R740 16SFF arrive with drives installed, and what must I supply?

The chassis provides 16 bays for 2.5-inch SATA drives; the listing states no drives are installed, so you must add the storage you need.

Should I choose the single Xeon Silver 4210 or add a second processor?

The system ships with one 10-core Xeon Silver 4210 at 2.2 GHz and supports a second identical CPU; add the second processor only if your workloads need more than 10 cores.

How much of the 256 GB DDR4 is usable after the OS and hypervisor load?

The 256 GB DDR4 ECC registered memory is fully addressable; typical ESXi or Windows Server overhead consumes only a few gigabytes, leaving the vast majority for virtual machines.
