Dual-socket Xeon Gold 6130 server

The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server built around two Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors, each with 16 cores running at 2.1 GHz and a 3.7 GHz turbo. It ships with 128 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory installed across eight slots. Eight 800 GB SATA SSDs provide high-speed storage, managed by a PERC H730P controller with 2 GB cache supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60.

2U rack build with redundant power

The chassis occupies 2U of rack space and includes ready rails and a front bezel for standard cabinet installation. Two hot-swap 750 W platinum power supplies deliver redundant power without downtime during replacement. A quad-port network daughter card adds two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ connections for flexible networking. iDRAC 9 Enterprise enables full remote management and monitoring over a dedicated interface.

Enterprise cooling for sustained loads

Redundant power supplies and the 2U form factor allow airflow tuned for continuous operation under heavy compute workloads. The PERC H730P controller includes a battery-backed cache to protect data during unexpected power loss. Hot-swap drive bays and power supplies let administrators replace components while the system remains running. The platform supports up to 3 TB of DDR4 across 24 slots for future expansion.

Questions about this item

Will the 750 W platinum power supplies hit their thermal limit before the CPUs reach full turbo under sustained load?

Two redundant 750 W platinum power supplies are installed, providing headroom for the dual Xeon Gold 6130 processors and eight SSDs.

How loud are the fans and what is the typical power draw when the server runs 24/7?

Redundant hot-swap cooling and platinum-efficiency power supplies are designed for continuous operation in rack environments.

Which SFP+ modules or direct-attach cables do I need for the 10 Gb ports on the X520/I350 daughter card?

The Intel X520/I350 quad-port card includes two 10 Gb SFP+ interfaces; compatible SFP+ transceivers or DAC cables are required to use those links.
