Dell PowerEdge R740 2U Rack Server

The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Gold 6126 processors, each delivering 12 cores at 2.6GHz. It ships with 512GB of DDR4 memory across 16 modules and includes eight 300GB 10K SAS drives managed by an H730P RAID controller. Remote administration is provided by iDRAC9 Enterprise, and the chassis offers up to eight PCIe Gen 3 slots for expansion.

Suited for virtualisation hosts needing dense

This configuration fits organisations running virtualised workloads, databases or enterprise applications that benefit from 24 total cores and half a terabyte of RAM. The eight 2.5-inch drive bays are populated with high-speed SAS storage, so buyers who need more drive bays or a different drive interface should consider another platform. The server includes redundant 1100W power supplies and sliding rails for immediate rack deployment.

Deciding specification: 512GB DDR4 in 16 populated

All 16 DIMM slots are filled with 32GB PC4-2400 modules, leaving no free slots for memory expansion without removing existing sticks. If your workload requires more than 512GB of RAM, you must replace modules rather than add to them. Verify your application's memory ceiling against this fixed capacity before purchase.

Questions about this item

Will the 2.5-inch SAS drives work with my existing H730 controller?

The server ships with an H730P RAID controller that manages the eight 300 GB 10K SAS drives in the 2.5-inch bays.

How do I confirm the 512 GB DDR4 memory is running at the correct speed?

Check the iDRAC9 Enterprise inventory or the BIOS memory information page; it should report 16 modules of 32 GB PC4-2400 DDR4.

Are rails and power cords included, or do I need to order them separately?

The shipment includes the bezel without LCD, sliding rails and two power cords for the redundant 1100 W supplies.
