Dual Xeon Gold 6134 2U Server

The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server built around two Intel Xeon Gold 6134 processors running at 3.2 GHz with 3.7 GHz turbo. Eight cores per CPU deliver sixteen threads for parallel workloads. The system ships with 768 GB of DDR4-2666 registered ECC memory across twenty-four slots and includes a PERC H730P controller with 2 GB cache. Dual 750 W redundant power supplies, iDRAC9 Enterprise and rails complete the package.

Virtualisation hosts and database nodes

This configuration suits teams consolidating virtual machines or running memory-intensive databases that benefit from the large DDR4 capacity and hardware RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 support. The quad-port network daughter card provides two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ links for flexible connectivity. Organisations needing more than two sockets or requiring storage interfaces beyond SAS and SATA should evaluate alternative platforms.

768 GB DDR4-2666 in twenty-four slots

The installed memory occupies every DIMM slot, delivering the full 768 GB at 2666 MHz with ECC protection. Expanding beyond this figure requires removing existing modules because the board offers no free slots. Buyers planning larger memory footprints must account for this constraint when sizing the deployment.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the PERC H730P controller is healthy after powering on?

During POST the controller BIOS should display its firmware version and report the 2 GB cache battery as optimal; iDRAC 9 Enterprise will then show the controller status as green and list the two 300 GB SAS drives in a healthy virtual disk.

Which items ship with the server and which must be sourced separately?

The unit includes two Xeon Gold 6134 processors, 24 × 32 GB DDR4 2666 MHz RDIMMs, the PERC H730P with battery, two 300 GB 10K SAS drives, the X520/I350 quad-port NIC, iDRAC 9 Enterprise, two 750 W platinum PSUs, ready rails and front bezel; additional drives or memory must be purchased separately.

Should I choose the 768 GB configuration or add more DDR4 later?

The board has 24 slots and supports up to 3 TB; the current 768 GB fills every slot with 32 GB modules, so any increase requires replacing modules rather than adding them.
