PowerEdge R740 8LFF dual Xeon Gold 6126
The Dell PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Gold 6126 processors running at 2.6GHz. It ships with 128GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory and a PERC H730P RAID controller. The chassis provides eight 3.5-inch drive bays for SATA storage. Remote management is handled by iDRAC9 Enterprise.
Suits virtualisation hosts needing core density
Organisations consolidating workloads on a two-socket platform will benefit from the 24 total cores and large memory ceiling. Buyers who want more storage bays than eight 3.5-inch slots should look elsewhere. The integrated graphics and single 10GbE adapter limit GPU compute and multi-port networking needs.
Fits standard 2U rack space with dual 750W supplies
The server requires a rack cabinet with at least 36 inches of depth and two PDU circuits for the redundant power supplies. Eight front bays free internal cabling for SATA drives or SSDs. The iDRAC9 Enterprise licence enables out-of-band control without extra licensing cost.

Questions about this item
What drive caddies or trays must I already have to populate the eight 3.5-inch bays?
The chassis accepts eight 3.5-inch drives; you will need compatible Dell 3.5-inch drive carriers for each bay you intend to fill.
Will my existing SATA hard drives work with the PERC H730P controller installed in this server?
Yes, the PERC H730P supports SATA drives, so your current SATA HDDs can be used in the eight 3.5-inch bays.
How can I verify the two Xeon Gold 6126 processors and 128 GB of DDR4 memory are recognised after power-on?
Check the iDRAC9 interface or the BIOS POST screen; both will display two CPUs at 2.6 GHz and 128 GB DDR4 ECC registered memory.
