Dell PowerEdge R740 dual Gold 6126 server

The Dell EMC PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Gold 6126 processors. Each CPU provides 12 cores running at 2.6 GHz with 19.25 MB cache. The system includes 256 GB of DDR4 memory across 16 modules at 2666 MT/s. It ships with a H730P RAID controller and two 960 GB SAS SSDs in an 8-bay 2.5 inch chassis.

Virtualisation hosts needing PCIe Gen 3 slots

This server suits teams running virtualised workloads that benefit from up to eight PCIe Gen 3 expansion slots and the onboard Intel X550 dual 10 Gb RJ45 plus dual 1 Gb RJ45 ports. Buyers who need an optical drive or who require a tower form factor should look at something else.

256 GB DDR4 installed memory

The 256 GB of DDR4 memory is the specification that determines whether this configuration matches the workload. If the application demands more memory capacity than 256 GB, a different server or additional modules will be required.

Questions about this item

Will the 2.6GHz Gold 6126 CPUs work with my existing DDR4-2666 RDIMMs?

Yes, the installed 256GB uses 16x 16GB PC4-2666 modules, so matching DDR4-2666 RDIMMs will run at rated speed.

How do I confirm the H730P RAID controller sees both 960GB SAS SSDs after first boot?

Open the H730P BIOS utility (Ctrl+R) or check iDRAC9 Enterprise storage view; both 960GB drives should appear in a healthy virtual disk.

Do the rails and power cords in the box fit a standard 2U 19-inch rack, or must I order different ones?

The included rails and 1100W redundant PSU cords are designed for the R740 2U chassis and standard 19-inch racks.
