Dell PowerEdge R740 8LFF dual Xeon server

This Dell PowerEdge R740 chassis supports up to eight 3.5-inch drive bays in a 2U rack-mount form factor. It ships with two Intel Xeon 5118 Gold processors running at 2.3GHz, each with twelve cores and 16.5MB cache. The system includes 512GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC H730P RAID controller. Integrated graphics and a 10GbE two-port 562T adapter handle display and network connectivity.

Suits virtualisation hosts and dense storage nodes

The eight large-form-factor bays and 3TB maximum memory ceiling make this platform a good fit for hypervisor clusters, backup repositories or database servers that need local capacity. Buyers who want more storage bays than eight, or who require GPU compute acceleration, should look at something else. The integrated graphics and single 10GbE adapter also limit use cases that demand high-speed multi-port networking or discrete video output.

512GB DDR4 ECC registered memory installed

The installed 512GB DDR4 ECC registered memory is the key specification that determines whether this server matches the workload. It uses DDR4 technology exclusively and can be expanded to 3TB across the available slots. If the application requires a different memory generation or a lower starting capacity, this configuration will not be the right part.

Questions about this item

Will the 2.3GHz Xeon 5118 CPUs and 512GB DDR4 ECC memory work with my existing SATA drives and PERC H730P RAID controller?

Yes, the server uses a SATA interface and the PERC H730P RAID controller supports existing SATA drives, while the 2x Xeon 5118 processors and 512GB DDR4 ECC registered memory are fully compatible with this configuration.

How can I verify the iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management and 10Gb Ethernet 562T adapter are functioning after initial setup?

Access the iDRAC9 Enterprise web interface via the dedicated management port to confirm remote management operation, and check the network adapter status in the iDRAC inventory or system BIOS to verify the 10Gb 2-port 562T adapter is detected and linked.

Which components are included with the R740 8LFF chassis and what must I purchase separately?

The unit includes the 8x3.5" LFF chassis, 2x Xeon 5118 processors, 512GB DDR4 ECC memory, PERC H730P RAID controller, 10Gb 2-port 562T network adapter, 2x 750W power supplies, and iDRAC9 Enterprise; drives and rail kit are not included and must be purchased separately.
