DELL PowerEdge R740 2U rack server

This dual-processor server fits into a standard 2U rack space and ships with 128GB of DDR4 memory across eight 16GB modules. Two Intel Silver 4210R processors each provide ten cores at 2.4GHz with 13.75M cache for multi-threaded workloads. It is aimed at businesses that need consolidated virtualisation or database capacity in a compact rack form factor.

Sustained load behaviour

The H730P RAID controller manages two 1.2TB 10K SAS drives for low-latency storage access during extended operations. Redundant 1100W power supplies maintain uptime if one unit fails under continuous draw. iDRAC9 Enterprise enables remote monitoring and firmware updates without physical presence during long-running tasks.

PCIe Gen 3 and network limits

Up to eight PCIe Gen 3 slots provide expansion headroom for additional controllers or accelerators within the platform ceiling. The integrated Intel X550 network daughter card delivers two 10Gb RJ45 and two 1Gb RJ45 ports for mixed-speed fabric connectivity. Storage growth is bounded by the eight 2.5-inch drive bay maximum populated with SAS media.

Questions about this item

How much heat do the dual Silver 4210R CPUs and eight DDR4 modules produce under full load?

Two 10-core Silver 4210R processors at 2.4 GHz and 128 GB of DDR4-2666 memory draw significant power, so the 1100 W redundant PSUs and chassis airflow are designed for continuous high-load thermal management.

Which rack rails and power cables must I already have to install this 2U server?

The shipment includes matching sliding rails and power cords, so no additional rack hardware or cables are required for a standard cabinet install.

Will my existing 10 Gb RJ45 switches and SAS storage arrays connect directly to the onboard Intel X550 and H730P controller?

Yes, the NDC provides two 10 Gb RJ45 and two 1 Gb RJ45 ports, while the H730P RAID controller manages the 1.2 TB SAS drives and any additional 2.5-inch SAS bays.
