Purpose-Built 2U Rack Server

The Dell EMC PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rackmount server system designed for compute-intensive workloads. It ships with dual Intel Gold 6132 processors, each delivering 14 cores at 2.6GHz, and 128GB of DDR4 memory installed across eight 16GB modules. Four 800GB SAS SSDs provide high-speed storage managed by an H730P RAID controller. Remote administration is handled through iDRAC9 Enterprise.

Virtualisation Hosts and Database Nodes

This configuration suits organisations consolidating virtual machines or running memory-heavy databases that benefit from 28 total cores and 128GB of RAM. The 10Gb Ethernet ports support fast east-west traffic inside a cluster. Buyers who need more than eight 2.5-inch drive bays or require PCIe Gen 4 expansion should evaluate alternative platforms. The lack of an optical drive may affect legacy media workflows.

Storage Controller Decides RAID Flexibility

The H730P controller determines which RAID levels and cache policies are available for the four installed 800GB SAS SSDs. It also governs how many additional drives can be added within the eight-bay chassis. Confirm that its feature set matches your redundancy and performance requirements before purchase.

Questions about this item

Does the 14-core Gold 6132 need a 2U rack and 1100W redundant PSU to run?

Yes, the 2U chassis holds the dual 14-core CPUs and the 1100W redundant power supplies that ship with the server.

Can the H730P RAID controller use the four 800GB SAS SSDs with older 2.5-inch drives?

The H730P supports SAS drives in the eight 2.5-inch bays, so the installed 800GB SSDs can share the backplane with other SAS disks.

How do I confirm iDRAC9 Enterprise is active after first boot?

Open a browser to the iDRAC IP, log in, and check that the dashboard shows Enterprise licence, both 10Gb RJ45 ports linked, and all 128GB DDR4 memory reported.
