Dual Xeon Gold 6130 2U Server

The 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 64GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 24 slots and a PERC H730P storage controller. The system targets workloads needing dual-socket compute density in a standard rack footprint.

SAS Controller And Drive Limits

The PERC H730P controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 across SAS and SATA drives at 12Gb/s. The chassis provides eight 2.5-inch bays but only two 300GB 10K SAS drives are installed. Expanding storage requires additional SAS or SATA drives and available drive bays.

Dual Processor Maximum Reached

Both LGA 3647 sockets are populated with Xeon Gold 6130 CPUs, so no further processor upgrades are possible. Memory can scale to 3TB using the remaining 20 DDR4 slots. Buyers needing more CPU cores must select a different platform.

Questions about this item

Which memory capacity should I select if I want room to grow later?

The server ships with 64 GB of DDR4 across four slots, leaving twenty empty slots so you can expand up to the 3 TB maximum supported by the platform.

What does the 2.1 GHz base clock mean for actual workloads?

Each Xeon Gold 6130 runs at 2.1 GHz base and can boost to 3.7 GHz, giving sixteen cores per processor strong single-thread speed while keeping multi-thread throughput high for virtualization or database tasks.

What RAID levels does the H730P controller support and what is its SAS throughput?

The PERC H730P provides 12 Gb/s SAS connectivity and handles RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode for direct drive access.
