2U rack server for virtualisation clusters
This 2U Dell PowerEdge R740 carries two Intel Gold 6132 processors, each with 14 cores at 2.6 GHz, and 512 GB of DDR4 memory across 16 DIMMs. It targets IT teams that need dense compute for virtualised workloads, database nodes or high-performance computing jobs in a standard rack footprint.
Eight 2.5-inch bays and up to eight PCIe Gen 3 slots
The chassis provides eight 2.5-inch drive bays; four are populated with 480 GB SATA SSDs managed by an H730P RAID controller, leaving four bays open for capacity growth. Up to eight PCIe Gen 3 slots accept additional network, storage or accelerator cards, while the integrated Intel X550 delivers two 10 Gb RJ45 and two 1 Gb RJ45 ports without consuming a slot.
Redundant 1100 W supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise
Dual 1100 W redundant power supplies share the load, so a single unit failure does not interrupt operation. iDRAC9 Enterprise gives full out-of-band control over power, firmware and console access, allowing remote troubleshooting without a local keyboard or monitor. The server ships with rails, bezel and power cords for immediate rack installation.
