Dell PowerEdge R740 2U Server

The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server built for compute-intensive workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6134 processors, each running at 3.2 GHz with eight cores. The system includes 64 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across four modules. Eight 400 GB SATA SSDs and a PERC H730P controller provide high-speed storage.

Suits virtualisation and database clusters.

This configuration suits virtualisation hosts, database clusters and high-performance computing nodes that need dual-socket density in 2U. The quad-port network daughter card with two 10 Gb SFP+ and two 1 GbE ports supports demanding east-west traffic. Organisations requiring GPU acceleration or larger local storage capacity should evaluate other platforms.

Dual Xeon Gold 6134 CPUs define the compute ceiling

The two installed Xeon Gold 6134 processors set the maximum core count at sixteen and the peak turbo frequency at 3.7 GHz. The LGA 3647 sockets are fully populated, so no further CPU upgrades are possible. Buyers must confirm that sixteen cores at 3.2 GHz base clock meet their licensing and performance targets before purchase.

Questions about this item

What rack-mount rails are included for the 2U chassis?

Ready Rails are supplied with the server so it can be mounted directly in a standard 4-post rack.

Which memory speed must replacement modules match for the 64GB DDR4 configuration?

The installed modules run at 2666MHz; any added DDR4 RDIMMs should be rated for 2666MHz to maintain that speed.

How many drive bays remain free after the 8x 400GB SSDs are fitted?

All eight 2.5-inch bays are occupied by the supplied SSDs; adding more drives would require a different chassis or external enclosure.
