Dell PowerEdge R740 8LFF Server
This Dell PowerEdge R740 rack server ships with two Intel Xeon Bronze 3104 processors running at 1.7 GHz and 384 GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. It is built for organisations that need a dense 2U platform with eight 3.5-inch drive bays and integrated remote management. The PERC H730P RAID controller and dual 750 W power supplies are installed and ready for configuration.
Capacity and headroom
The chassis supports up to eight 3.5-inch SATA drives, while the memory subsystem can scale to 3 TB across 24 DIMM slots. Two processor sockets are already populated, so CPU expansion is not possible. The 10 GbE dual-port 562T adapter provides high-throughput networking for storage or virtualisation clusters.
Deciding specification
The eight-bay 3.5-inch LFF chassis determines whether this server fits your storage density requirements. If you need more than eight large-form-factor drives or a smaller 2.5-inch bay count, a different chassis is required.

Questions about this item
Does the 8LFF chassis accept the 3.5 inch SATA drives I already use?
The eight 3.5 inch bays are wired for SATA, so your existing SATA drives will fit and connect directly to the PERC H730P controller.
How can I confirm the two Xeon Bronze 3104 CPUs and 384GB of DDR4 are recognised after installation?
Log into iDRAC9 Enterprise; the System Overview page shows both 1.7GHz 6-core processors and the full 384GB of DDR4 ECC Registered memory.
What components are included and which must be sourced separately?
The server ships with dual Xeon Bronze 3104 CPUs, 384GB DDR4, PERC H730P RAID controller, dual 750W power supplies, 10GbE 2-port 562T adapter and iDRAC9 Enterprise; drives and rail kit are not included.
