Dual Xeon Gold 6134 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server built around two Intel Xeon Gold 6134 processors, each running at 3.2 GHz with eight cores. It ships with 128 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across eight 16 GB modules. The platform targets virtualisation hosts, database nodes and compute-heavy workloads that benefit from dual-socket density in a 2U form factor.

Verify rack space power and drive bays

Confirm your rack can accept a 2U unit and that the facility provides redundant feeds for the two 750 W platinum power supplies. The chassis holds eight 2.5-inch SATA drive bays; only two 800 GB SATA SSDs are installed, so plan additional drives if capacity or RAID redundancy beyond the PERC H730P controller's current configuration is required. Network connectivity uses an Intel X520/I350 daughter card delivering two 1 GbE and two 10 Gb SFP+ ports.

Sustained load handled by redundant cooling

Under continuous demand the dual 750 W supplies share load and maintain operation if one unit fails. The PERC H730P controller with 2 GB cache and battery-backed write-back sustains write throughput during extended transactions. iDRAC 9 Enterprise provides remote thermal monitoring and power capping so administrators can keep the system stable during long-running jobs without physical access.

Questions about this item

Does the R740 ship with rails and a bezel, or must they be ordered separately?

Ready Rails and a front bezel are included with the server so no separate purchase is required for mounting hardware.

Should I choose the 128 GB configuration or plan to fill all 24 slots up to 3 TB?

The system arrives with 128 GB across eight 16 GB DDR4 2666 MHz modules leaving sixteen empty slots for future expansion to the 3 TB maximum.

What throughput can the H730P controller and dual 800 GB SSDs deliver in a RAID array?

The PERC H730P supports RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 with 2 GB cache; the two 800 GB SATA SSDs connect at 6 Gb/s providing high IOPS for mixed read-write workloads.
