Dell PowerEdge R740 8LFF dual Xeon 5118

The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack-mount server system equipped with two Intel Xeon 5118 processors running at 2.3 GHz. It ships with 768 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC H730P RAID controller. The chassis provides eight 3.5-inch drive bays with SATA interface, and remote management is handled by iDRAC9 with an Enterprise licence.

Suits memory-heavy workloads

Organisations running large in-memory databases, dense virtual-machine clusters or high-thread-count applications will benefit from the 768 GB DDR4 capacity and 24 total cores. Buyers who need more than eight 3.5-inch drive bays, faster storage protocols than SATA, or dedicated GPU compute density should look elsewhere, as the chassis does not support those expansions.

Eight 3.5-inch SATA drive bays define storage limits

The single specification that decides fit is the eight-bay 3.5-inch SATA backplane; it sets the maximum number of spinning drives and the interface speed available without adding external enclosures or a different chassis.

Questions about this item

How much rack depth does the 36 x 24 x 10 in chassis require?

The chassis is 36 inches deep, so allow at least that much clear depth plus cable clearance behind the rear panel.

What is the correct sequence for seating the two Xeon 5118 processors and the 768GB DDR4 memory?

Install both processors first, then populate the memory slots evenly across all channels following the silkscreen order.

When should the PERC H730P controller battery be replaced?

Replace the RAID controller battery when iDRAC9 reports a degraded or failed battery status during its health checks.
