Dual Gold 6126 server for virtualisation

The Dell EMC PowerEdge R740 fits in a 2U rack space and runs two Intel Gold 6126 processors at 2.6 GHz with twelve cores each. Sixty-four gigabytes of DDR4 memory across four 16 GB modules supports dense virtual-machine workloads. Four 960 GB SAS SSDs on an H730P controller provide fast redundant storage for databases or hypervisor boots.

Sustained compute with redundant power

Dual 1100 W supplies keep both CPUs and all drive bays online during continuous multi-threaded jobs. The H730P cache and SAS interface maintain steady write throughput without the throttling seen on consumer drives. Eight 2.5 inch bays allow future capacity growth while the current SSD set handles mixed read-write streams.

PCIe Gen 3 and 10 Gb Ethernet limits

Up to eight PCIe Gen 3 slots set the ceiling for additional accelerators or network cards. The integrated Intel X550 delivers two 10 Gb RJ45 ports and two 1 Gb ports for clustered traffic. iDRAC9 Enterprise gives remote console and firmware control over a dedicated management network.

Questions about this item

How much heat and power do the dual 1100W redundant supplies draw when the dual 2.6GHz 12-core CPUs run all day?

Each supply is rated at 1100W and operates redundantly; actual draw depends on workload but the pair provides headroom for both Gold 6126 processors at full load.

What rack rails and cabling must I already have to install this 2U chassis?

Rails and power cords are included; you only need a standard 2U rack opening and network cables for the Intel X550 10Gb and 1Gb RJ45 ports.

Can the H730P controller manage the existing 4x 960GB SAS SSDs alongside older 2.5" mechanical drives?

The H730P supports mixed SAS drives in the 8-bay backplane so the installed SSDs can share arrays with additional 2.5" HDDs.
