Dual-socket 2U rack server

This Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Gold 6130 processors running at 2.1GHz with 16 cores each. It includes 768GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 24 slots and eight 800GB SATA SSDs managed by a PERC H730P RAID controller. Dual 750W redundant power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management complete the platform.

Suited for virtualisation and database workloads

The dual 16-core CPUs and large memory capacity make this system appropriate for virtualisation clusters, database servers and compute-intensive applications. The eight-bay 2.5-inch chassis with hardware RAID supports redundancy and throughput for mixed read-write workloads. Buyers who need more than two processors or more than 3TB of memory should consider a larger platform.

3TB maximum memory capacity

The Intel C620 chipset supports up to 3TB of DDR4 across 24 DIMM slots, defining the ceiling for memory expansion. The current configuration populates every slot with 32GB modules to reach 768GB. Any future upgrade requires replacing existing modules to stay within the 3TB limit.

Questions about this item

What storage controller standard does the H730P use and what speed does it cap at?

The PERC H730P is a 12Gb/s SAS/SATA RAID controller with 2GB cache supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60.

What physical rails and rack height does the server need?

Ready Rails are included for tool-less mounting; the unit occupies 2U of vertical space in a standard rack.

How are the CPUs and memory installed, and what step is often missed?

Two Xeon Gold 6130 processors come pre-installed in LGA 3647 sockets; 768GB DDR4 2666MHz ECC fills all 24 slots, so verify the memory configuration matches the 24x 32GB layout before adding modules.
