Ready-to-deploy 2U rack server

This Dell PowerEdge R740 arrives with dual Gold 6132 processors, each delivering 14 cores at 2.6 GHz and 19.25M cache. The system includes 128 GB of DDR4 memory configured as eight 16 GB modules running at PC4-2666. Two 7.68 TB SAS SSDs are installed behind the H730P RAID controller, providing immediate high-capacity storage for virtualization or database workloads.

Thermal design and power

The 2U chassis houses an 1100 W redundant power supply that maintains operation if one module fails. Eight 2.5-inch drive bays allow airflow to reach the installed SSDs and any additional drives you add. Dual Intel Gold CPUs and the H730P controller draw steady power under typical enterprise loads while the integrated fan wall regulates temperatures without external liquid cooling.

Connectivity and expansion

Up to eight PCIe Gen 3 slots support additional network cards, accelerators or storage controllers as workloads grow. The NDC module supplies two 10 Gb RJ45 ports and two 1 Gb RJ45 ports for flexible network segmentation. iDRAC9 Enterprise enables remote power cycling, firmware updates and console access without a local keyboard or monitor. Rails and power cords are included for standard rack mounting.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 2x 7.68TB SAS SSDs into the 2.5" drive bays and what step is often missed?

Slide each SSD into an empty 2.5" bay until the carrier clicks, then create the virtual disk in the H730P BIOS before the OS sees the volume — skipping the RAID setup is the common miss

What maintenance will the 1100W redundant power supplies need later?

Check fan intake filters quarterly and replace a failed PSU module hot-swap while the second unit keeps the R740 running — no tools required

Which limit appears first when both Gold 6132 CPUs run sustained 2.6GHz workloads?

The 1100W PSU pair caps total draw, so prolonged all-core turbo on 28 threads per socket will hit the power envelope before thermal throttling engages
