PowerEdge R740 2U dual-socket server

The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server built for compute-dense workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6148 processors, each running at 2.4 GHz with 20 cores and a 3.7 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 256 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz registered ECC memory across eight 32 GB modules. A PERC H730P controller manages eight 600 GB 10 K SAS drives in the 2.5-inch bays.

Virtualisation hosts and database nodes.

This configuration suits organisations consolidating virtual machines, running in-memory databases or hosting high-throughput transactional applications. The dual 20-core CPUs and large memory capacity support heavy multi-threaded loads. Buyers who need GPU accelerator slots or additional drive bays beyond the eight 2.5-inch slots should verify chassis options before ordering.

PERC H730P RAID controller with 2 GB cache

The installed Dell PERC H730P provides 12 Gb/s SAS and SATA connectivity with a 2 GB backed cache. It supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. This controller determines the storage performance and redundancy options available for the eight 600 GB SAS drives.
