Dual-socket 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server with two Intel Xeon Silver 4110 processors running at 2.10 GHz, each providing eight cores. It comes with 64 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory installed across four 16 GB modules and includes a PERC H730P storage controller with 2 GB cache. Two 800 GB SATA SSDs are fitted in the eight-bay 2.5-inch chassis.

Suits virtualisation hosts, not GPU-heavy workloads

This configuration suits buyers who need a balanced two-socket platform with redundant 750 W platinum power supplies, quad-port networking including two 10 Gb SFP+ links, and iDRAC 9 Enterprise remote management. It is not suited for buyers who require more than two processors, GPU accelerator cards, or storage interfaces other than SATA and SAS.

Max memory capacity is 3 TB

The system board provides 24 DDR4 slots and supports a maximum of 3 TB of memory, so the installed 64 GB can be expanded significantly. This ceiling is the key figure for deciding whether the server can grow into a larger consolidation or in-memory workload.

Questions about this item

Do I need to provide my own rack and rails to mount this 2U PowerEdge R740?

The server includes ready rails for rack mounting and a front bezel, so no separate rail kit is required.

Will my existing SAS drives work with the PERC H730P controller installed in this R740?

Yes, the H730P supports both SAS and SATA drives and offers RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 modes for mixed drive sets.

How can I confirm the iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management is active after the server boots?

During POST the iDRAC IP address is displayed on screen; you can also reach the web interface from a browser on the same network.
