Dell PowerEdge R740 2U Rack Server

The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server built around a single Intel Gold 6148 processor with 20 cores running at 2.4 GHz. It ships with 64 GB of DDR4 memory across four 16 GB modules and includes a H730P RAID controller managing two 7.68 TB SAS SSDs.

Suits virtualisation hosts needing dense 2.5-inch

This configuration fits teams running virtualised workloads that benefit from 20 cores and 64 GB of RAM within an 8-bay 2.5-inch chassis. Buyers who need more than one processor, more than eight drive bays, or a different drive interface should evaluate other platforms.

Single Gold 6148 processor limits multi-socket

The server contains only one Gold 6148 CPU, so the 20-core, 27.5 MB cache ceiling is fixed unless a second compatible processor is sourced separately. That single-socket design decides whether the R740 meets the thread count required for the target workload.

Questions about this item

What rack height and drive bay configuration does the R740 chassis provide?

The chassis is a 2U rack unit with eight 2.5-inch drive bays for SAS SSDs.

How are the sliding rails mounted and which step is often missed?

The included rails attach to the rack posts first; the step often missed is securing the server to the rails with the locking screws before powering on.

When will the 1100W redundant power supplies need replacement?

Replace a power supply when the iDRAC9 Enterprise console reports a fault or the front-panel amber LED indicates a PSU failure.
