Dell PowerEdge R740 2U Server

The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server designed for data-centre workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon Silver 4116 processors, each running at 2.10 GHz with 12 cores. The system includes 512 GB of DDR4 memory across 16 modules and a PERC H730P storage controller with 2 GB cache. Eight 800 GB SATA SSDs are installed in the 2.5-inch drive bays.

Dual-socket platform for virtualisation

This configuration suits organisations running virtualised environments, database clusters or high-performance computing jobs that benefit from 24 total cores and large memory capacity. The quad-port network daughter card provides two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ connections. Buyers who need more than two processors, a tower chassis, or a different drive interface should evaluate other platforms.

512 GB DDR4 registered ECC memory

The installed 512 GB of DDR4 2400 MHz registered ECC memory fills 16 of the 24 available DIMM slots. This capacity directly determines how many virtual machines or how large a dataset the server can handle before a memory upgrade is required.

Questions about this item

Does the server ship with all 8 drive bays populated or do I need to buy additional SSDs?

All eight 2.5-inch bays are filled with 800 GB SATA SSDs, so no extra drives are required for a full configuration.

The description lists 512 GB of DDR4 — is that the maximum or can I add more later?

The system has 24 DIMM slots and supports up to 3 TB, so the installed 512 GB leaves room for future expansion.

What RAID levels can the PERC H730P controller handle with the eight installed SSDs?

The H730P supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60, giving a wide choice of redundancy and performance layouts for the eight drives.
