Dual-socket Xeon Gold server for dense compute

The PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server fitted with two Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors running at 2.1 GHz with 16 cores each. It targets organisations that need high core counts in a compact form factor for virtualisation, database or high-performance workloads. The system ships with 128 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across eight modules.

Enterprise storage controller

A Dell PERC H730P controller with 2 GB cache provides RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through for the eight 300 GB 10K SAS drives installed in the 2.5-inch bays. The Intel X520/I350 daughter card adds two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports for flexible network topology. Redundant 750 W platinum power supplies and hot-swap drive bays support continuous operation.

Remote management and ready-to-rack hardware

iDRAC 9 Enterprise enables full out-of-band control including virtual console, power cycling and hardware health monitoring from any browser. The package includes sliding Ready Rails and a front bezel so the server can be mounted immediately in a standard rack. No SSD storage is included, so workloads requiring flash tiers will need additional drives.

Questions about this item

What RAID levels does the PERC H730P controller support on the 12Gb/s SAS interface?

The PERC H730P 2GB controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode on its 12Gb/s SAS/SATA interface.

How much rack space and rail depth does the 2U chassis with ready rails require?

The server occupies 2U of rack height and ships with ready rails that mount in standard four-post cabinets; allow sufficient depth for the 750W redundant power supplies and rear I/O.

What is the correct order for installing the 16-core Xeon Gold 6130 processors and 2666MHz DDR4 memory?

Install both CPUs first, then populate the 24 DDR4 slots following the per-socket channel layout — eight 16GB registered ECC modules are already installed for 128GB total.
