DELL PowerEdge R740 2U server

The DELL PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server system built for data-centre workloads. It ships with two Intel Xeon Silver 4116 processors running at 2.1GHz with 12 cores each. Memory is 512GB of DDR4 across 16 modules. Storage uses eight 400GB SATA SSDs behind a PERC H730P controller.

Suited for dual-socket compute and SAS SATA storage

This configuration fits buyers who need two processors and a SAS SATA storage controller with battery-backed cache. It also provides quad-port networking with two 1GbE and two 10Gb SFP+ ports. Buyers who require a single-socket platform or a different drive interface should look elsewhere.

PERC H730P controller with RAID 0 1 5 6 10 50 60

The Dell PERC H730P 2GB controller supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 plus pass-through mode. It includes a battery for write-back cache protection. This controller determines which drive arrays can be created and how data is protected.
