Dell PowerEdge R740 2U rack server

The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server built for virtualisation, database workloads and dense compute clusters. Two Intel Gold 6132 processors deliver 28 cores at 2.6 GHz with 19.25 MB cache each. 128 GB of DDR4 memory in eight 16 GB modules runs at 2666 MT/s. Eight 1.2 TB 10K SAS drives attach to an H730P RAID controller.

Check rack space power and networking

Verify that your rack provides a 2U slot with sufficient airflow for dual 1100 W redundant supplies. Confirm the PDU can deliver the required current for both power modules. Ensure your network infrastructure supports the onboard Intel X550 dual 10 Gb RJ45 and dual 1 Gb RJ45 ports. Plan PCIe Gen 3 slot allocation for any additional adapters before installation.

Replaces older 2U servers

This system upgrades from previous-generation 2U platforms that offer fewer cores lower clock speeds and smaller memory footprints. The jump is worthwhile when workloads demand higher core counts faster DDR4 throughput and integrated 10 Gb networking without extra cards. Buyers who need GPU acceleration or more than eight 2.5 inch drive bays should evaluate alternative chassis.

Questions about this item

Does the server come with rails and power cords, or must they be purchased separately?

The package includes bezel without LCD, rails, and power cords so no extra cables or mounting hardware are needed.

Should I choose the 128GB DDR4 2666 configuration or add more memory modules?

Eight 16GB DDR4 2666 modules fill all populated slots; adding capacity requires replacing modules with higher-density DIMMs.

How does the dual Gold 6132 2.6GHz 14-core setup perform in a virtualization host?

Twenty-eight cores at 2.6GHz with 19.25MB cache each deliver strong multi-thread throughput for dense VM workloads.
