Dell PowerEdge R740 2U Server

The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server built for compute-intensive workloads. It ships with dual Intel Xeon Gold 6134 processors running at 3.20 GHz with 3.7 GHz turbo, providing 16 total cores and 128GB of DDR4 2666MHz registered ECC memory across 8 DIMMs.

Suits virtualization and database clusters

This configuration suits teams consolidating virtual machines or running memory-heavy databases that benefit from the 16-core count and 128GB capacity. The PERC H730P controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 with battery-backed cache. Buyers who need more than 24 DIMM slots or who require storage interfaces beyond SATA and SAS should look at alternative platforms.

24 DDR4 slots define maximum memory

The server provides 24 DDR4 memory slots with a maximum supported capacity of 3TB. This slot count and the registered ECC requirement are the decisive factors when planning memory upgrades or validating compatibility with existing DDR4 modules.

Questions about this item

How often will the PERC H730P controller battery need replacement?

The PERC H730P includes a 2GB cache battery that typically lasts three to five years; replace it when iDRAC 9 Enterprise reports a degraded state to keep RAID write-back caching active.

Which component hits its limit first during continuous all-core workloads?

The two Xeon Gold 6134 processors run at 3.2 GHz base with 3.7 GHz turbo across 16 total cores; sustained all-core turbo is constrained by the 750 W platinum power supplies and 2U thermal envelope.

What noise and heat levels should I expect when the server runs 24/7?

Dual 750 W platinum PSUs and redundant fans keep the 2U chassis within ASHRAE A2 limits; idle acoustics are around 5.2 bels, rising under full CPU and SSD load.
