Dell PowerEdge R740 2U Server

The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack-mount server built for compute-intensive workloads. It ships with dual Intel Xeon Gold 6134 processors running at 3.20 GHz with a 3.7 GHz turbo frequency. Each CPU provides eight cores for a total of sixteen processing threads. The system includes 512 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across sixteen modules.

Suits virtualisation and database clusters needing

This configuration fits organisations that run virtualised environments, database clusters or high-performance applications requiring fast local storage. The eight 800 GB SATA SSDs and PERC H730P controller deliver hardware RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 with a 2 GB battery-backed cache. Buyers who need more than twenty-four memory slots, more than two processor sockets or a different drive interface should evaluate alternative platforms that match those requirements.

PERC H730P RAID controller with 2 GB cache

The installed Dell PERC H730P storage controller provides 12 Gb/s SAS and SATA connectivity with a 2 GB battery-backed write cache. It supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. This controller determines which drive types and RAID configurations are available, making it the key specification for storage planning.

Questions about this item

What rack space and power connections do I need for this 2U server?

The unit occupies 2U of rack height and includes ready rails for mounting. It ships with two redundant 750 Watt platinum-efficiency hot-swap power supplies.

Can the PERC H730P controller manage my existing SATA drives alongside the installed SSDs?

Yes. The H730P 2GB controller supports 12Gb/s SAS and SATA, so legacy SATA drives can be added to the same backplane and configured in RAID 0/1/5/6/10/50/60 or pass-through mode.

How do I verify the 512GB DDR4 memory and dual Xeon Gold 6134 CPUs are recognised after first boot?

Open the iDRAC9 Enterprise web interface or enter the system BIOS; both will display 512GB of DDR4 2666MHz registered ECC memory across 16 slots and two 8-core Xeon Gold 6134 processors running at 3.2GHz base with 3.7GHz turbo.
