Enterprise Rack Server for Virtualisation Workloads

The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server built for dense virtualisation and database tasks. It ships with two Intel Gold 6132 processors, each delivering 14 cores at 2.6GHz with 19.25M cache. The system includes 32GB of DDR4 memory arranged as two 16GB PC4-2666 modules. Six 800GB SAS SSDs are pre-installed behind an H730P RAID controller.

Sustained Compute and Storage Throughput

Under continuous load the dual 14-core CPUs maintain 2.6GHz across all cores, providing predictable throughput for multi-tenant environments. The H730P controller manages the six 800GB SAS SSDs with hardware RAID, sustaining high IOPS for mixed read-write patterns. Up to eight PCIe Gen 3 slots remain available for additional network or accelerator cards. The Intel X550 NDC supplies two 10Gb RJ45 and two 1Gb RJ45 ports for balanced network segmentation.

Redundant Power and Remote Management

Dual 1100W redundant power supplies share the load, keeping the chassis running if one unit fails. The iDRAC9 Enterprise module provides out-of-band monitoring, virtual console and firmware updates over a dedicated network interface. Front-accessible 2.5-inch drive bays allow hot-swap replacement without shutting down the server. The package includes bezel, rails and power cords for immediate rack installation.

Questions about this item

How loud and hot does the R740 run with dual Gold 6132 CPUs and six 800 GB SAS SSDs under constant load?

Dual Gold 6132 processors at 2.6 GHz and six SAS SSDs draw significant power; the 1100 W redundant PSUs and 2U chassis fans keep temperatures stable, but expect noticeable fan noise in a quiet room.

What rack infrastructure must I already have to install this 2U server with rails and dual 1100 W power supplies?

You need a standard 19-inch rack with at least 2U of free space, front and rear clearance for airflow, and two PDU outlets rated for the 1100 W redundant power supplies.

Can the H730P controller and PCIe Gen 3 slots work with my existing SAS drives and older PCIe cards?

The H730P RAID controller supports SAS drives, and the eight PCIe Gen 3 slots accept older PCIe cards at reduced speeds.
