Dell PowerEdge R740 2U Server
The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server designed for dense compute workloads. It ships with two Intel Gold 6126 processors, each offering twelve cores at 2.6GHz, providing a total of twenty-four cores. The system includes 128GB of DDR4 memory across eight 16GB modules and six 480GB SATA SSDs managed by an H730P RAID controller.
Suited for virtualisation and database clusters
This configuration suits organisations running virtualisation hosts, database clusters, or high-throughput applications that benefit from twenty-four threads and redundant 1100W power supplies. The eight 2.5-inch drive bays and up to eight PCIe Gen 3 slots allow storage and I/O expansion. Buyers who need more than eight drive bays, additional memory capacity beyond 128GB, or a different processor core count should look at alternative platforms.
H730P RAID controller with 6x 480GB SSDs
The H730P controller manages the six included 480GB SATA SSDs in a choice of RAID levels for redundancy or capacity. Two drive bays remain open for future growth within the 2.5-inch chassis. The installed storage controller determines which drive types and RAID modes are supported, making it the key specification to verify against workload requirements.

Questions about this item
Will the 2.5-inch SATA SSDs and PCIe Gen 3 slots work with my existing Dell PERC cards and older drives?
The server includes six 480GB SATA SSDs in 2.5-inch bays and an H730P RAID controller with eight PCIe Gen 3 slots. Your existing PERC cards and drives must match the SATA interface and PCIe Gen 3 electrical specification to function.
How can I verify the dual Gold 6126 processors and 128GB DDR4 memory are recognised after installation?
Log into the iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management interface; the System > Inventory page will show two Intel Gold 6126 CPUs at 2.6GHz and eight 16GB PC4-2666 DDR4 modules totalling 128GB.
Which items ship in the box and what must I purchase separately?
The chassis includes bezel, sliding rails, two 1100W redundant power supplies and power cords. The six 480GB SATA SSDs, H730P controller, 128GB DDR4 and dual Gold 6126 CPUs are pre-installed. Additional drives, GPUs or NICs are not included.
