Dell PowerEdge R740 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server built for compute-intensive workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon Platinum 8160 processors, each running at 2.1 GHz with 24 cores. The system includes 768 GB of DDR4 memory across 24 slots and eight 400 GB SATA SSDs managed by a PERC H730P controller.

Suited for virtualisation and database hosts

This configuration suits organisations running virtualisation clusters, large databases or high-performance applications that benefit from high core counts and large memory capacity. The dual 750 W redundant power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise support continuous operation. Buyers who need GPU acceleration for AI training or workloads requiring faster storage speeds should look at platforms designed for those requirements.

PERC H730P RAID controller with 2 GB cache

The installed Dell PERC H730P controller provides 2 GB of cache and supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. It connects to the eight 2.5-inch SATA SSDs through a 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA interface. This controller determines the storage performance and redundancy options available for the installed drives.
