PowerEdge R740 dual-socket 2U server

The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Gold 6134 processors running at 3.2 GHz with 8 cores each. It ships with 64 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across 4 modules and a Dell PERC H730P 2 GB storage controller. Eight 600 GB 10K SAS 2.5-inch drives are installed in the 8-bay chassis. Dual 750 W platinum power supplies, iDRAC9 Enterprise, quad-port networking and rails are included.

Suits virtualisation hosts needing dense 2U compute

This configuration fits organisations that run virtualised workloads, databases or traditional enterprise applications where dual-socket CPU performance and hardware RAID are required. The 24 DIMM slots allow memory expansion up to 3 TB. Buyers who need GPU accelerator support, all-flash arrays or single-thread performance above 3.7 GHz should look at a different platform.

PERC H730P RAID controller with 2 GB cache

The installed PERC H730P provides 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA connectivity with battery-backed 2 GB cache and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 and pass-through modes. This controller determines which drive types and RAID levels are available without additional hardware.

Questions about this item

What rack height and rail type does the PowerEdge R740 require?

The server occupies 2U of rack space and ships with Ready Rails for standard square-hole or threaded cabinets.

How are the Xeon Gold 6134 processors and DDR4 memory installed, and what step is often missed?

Both CPUs are pre-installed in the LGA 3647 sockets; the four 16 GB DDR4 modules must be placed in the correct channels per the memory population guide.

Which components will need replacement during the server's service life?

The eight 600 GB 10K SAS drives and the H730P controller battery are the primary items that will require replacement over time.
