PowerEdge R740 2U dual-socket server

The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Silver 4110 8-core processors running at 2.1 GHz. It ships with 256 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 24 slots and a PERC H730P RAID controller with 2 GB cache. Two 800 GB SATA SSDs and quad-port networking with 10 Gb SFP+ ports are included.

Suits virtualisation hosts needing dense compute

This configuration fits teams consolidating virtual machines or running database workloads that benefit from dual processors and high memory capacity. Buyers who need more internal drive bays than the eight 2.5-inch slots provided should consider a different chassis.

256 GB DDR4 registered ECC memory installed

The system arrives with 256 GB of DDR4 2400 MHz registered ECC memory populated across 24 DIMM slots, expandable to 3 TB. This memory capacity and type determine whether the server matches the workload requirements immediately.

Questions about this item

How loud or hot does the 750W redundant PSU run during continuous 24/7 operation?

The dual 750 watt platinum power supplies share the load, reducing heat and fan speed under sustained workloads.

Which cables or drive carriers are required to populate the remaining six 2.5 inch bays?

The chassis accepts standard 2.5 inch SATA or SAS drives; the PERC H730P controller provides the backplane connections.

Will the iDRAC9 Enterprise card work with my existing Dell OpenManage console?

iDRAC9 Enterprise integrates with OpenManage and supports the same remote-management features across current PowerEdge generations.
