DELL PowerEdge R740 2U Server

The DELL PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server built for virtualisation and database workloads. It ships with two Intel Silver 4210R 10‑core processors running at 2.4 GHz and 256 GB of DDR4 memory across 16 modules. Six 1.2 TB 10K SAS drives are pre‑installed behind an H730P RAID controller. Remote management is handled by iDRAC9 Enterprise.

Check rack space power and expansion needs

Verify that your rack can accommodate a 2U chassis with eight 2.5‑inch drive bays and that cooling capacity matches the 1100 W redundant power supplies. Confirm the PCIe Gen 3 slot layout suits any additional adapters you plan to install. The network daughter card provides two 10 Gb RJ45 and two 1 Gb RJ45 ports, so ensure your switch topology supports those speeds. No optical drive is included.

Enterprise chassis with redundant power and rails

The server uses a DELL chassis designed for eight 2.5‑inch drives, supplied with bezel, sliding rails and power cords. Dual 1100 W redundant supplies maintain uptime during a module failure. The H730P controller manages the six SAS drives with hardware RAID. iDRAC9 Enterprise enables out‑of‑band monitoring and firmware updates without host OS involvement.

Questions about this item

What components are included in the box and what must be sourced separately?

The chassis ships with two Intel Silver 4210R CPUs, 256GB DDR4 in 16 modules, six 1.2TB 10K SAS drives, an H730P RAID controller, iDRAC9 Enterprise, dual redundant 1100W PSUs, bezel, rails and power cords. No optical drive is fitted; additional 2.5" drives or PCIe cards are not included.

Which configuration choices exist for the Silver 4210R processor and the 1.2TB SAS drives?

The server arrives with a fixed dual-socket layout: two Silver 4210R CPUs at 2.4GHz with 13.75M cache and 10 cores each, and six 1.2TB 10K SAS drives pre-installed. The 8-bay chassis leaves two bays free for expansion, but no alternative CPU or drive capacities are offered in this SKU.

What does the 256GB DDR4-2666 figure mean for real-world workloads?

256GB is populated as 16x 16GB PC4-2666 modules, filling all memory channels across both sockets for maximum bandwidth. This capacity suits multi-VM consolidation, in-memory databases or heavy virtualisation where large working sets must stay resident.
