Dell PowerEdge R740 2U server
The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Silver 4210R processors, each providing 10 cores at 2.4 GHz. It ships with 64 GB of DDR4 memory arranged as four 16 GB modules running at 2666 MT/s. The system includes a PERC H730P RAID controller and two 7.68 TB SAS SSDs installed in an eight-bay 2.5-inch chassis. Dual 1100 W redundant power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management complete the platform.
Suited for virtualisation and database hosts
This server suits organisations that need a dense 2U platform with dual-socket compute, hardware RAID and high-capacity flash storage for virtualisation clusters or database workloads. The eight PCIe Gen 3 slots allow GPU, FPGA or additional NIC expansion. Buyers who require more than eight 2.5-inch drive bays or who need an optical drive should look at alternative configurations.
Storage capacity is the deciding factor
The two factory-installed 7.68 TB SAS SSDs provide the primary storage pool; the H730P controller manages them in the chosen RAID level. Eight 2.5-inch bays in total mean six bays remain open for future capacity growth. If the workload demands more raw capacity than the two installed drives supply, the buyer must plan additional drives before deployment.

Questions about this item
Will the 2.5-inch 7.68TB SAS SSDs fit the drive bays on my current 2U rack chassis?
The server provides eight 2.5-inch drive bays, so the installed 7.68TB SAS SSDs use the same form factor and will occupy two of those bays.
How can I confirm the dual Silver 4210R 10-core processors and 64GB DDR4 memory are recognised after power-on?
The iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management interface displays CPU model, core count and installed memory details during POST and in the system inventory.
Which items ship with the server and which components must be sourced separately?
The shipment includes the 2U chassis with bezel, rails, redundant 1100W power supplies and power cords; additional drives, PCIe cards or operating system licences are not included.
