Dual-socket Silver 4210 server for virtualisation

The Dell EMC PowerEdge R740 fits a 2U rack and runs two Intel Silver 4210 processors, each with ten cores. One hundred twenty-eight gigabytes of DDR4 memory supports multiple virtual machines or container workloads. Six 2 TB 7.2K SAS drives provide high-capacity storage on the H740P controller.

Eight 2.5-inch bays with redundant 1100 W power

The chassis holds up to eight 2.5-inch drives, leaving two bays free for future expansion. Dual 1100 W power supplies deliver redundancy for continuous operation. iDRAC9 Enterprise enables remote firmware updates, power control and console access without a local monitor or keyboard.

Replaces older 12th-generation dual-socket platforms

Organisations moving from earlier two-socket rack servers gain higher core counts and larger memory capacity in the same rack height. The jump is worthwhile when workloads need more than twelve cores per socket or when storage must exceed four terabytes on spinning media.

Questions about this item

What PCIe generation do the expansion slots use, and what bandwidth does that cap per lane?

Up to eight PCIe Gen 3 slots are available, limiting each lane to 8 GT/s bandwidth.

What physical drive bays and form factor does the chassis provide for storage?

The 2U chassis provides eight 2.5-inch drive bays for SAS drives.

How is the operating system deployed using iDRAC9 Enterprise, and which step is often missed?

Mount the OS ISO via iDRAC9 Enterprise virtual media, boot from it, and install; the step often missed is setting the virtual media as the first boot device.
