Dell PowerEdge R740 8LFF dual Xeon server
The Dell PowerEdge R740 8LFF chassis holds two Xeon Gold 6126 processors running at 2.6GHz with 12 cores each. It ships with 32GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory in a 2x16GB layout. The PERC H730P RAID controller manages up to eight 3.5-inch SATA drive bays. Integrated graphics and iDRAC9 Enterprise remote management are included.
Ideal for dense storage workloads
This 2U rack server suits teams that need high drive-count capacity with dual-socket compute for virtualization, databases, or backup targets. The 10GbE 2-port 562T adapter supports fast network throughput. Buyers who require GPU compute, PCIe flash tiers, or single-thread speeds above 2.6GHz should evaluate other platforms.
PERC H730P RAID controller
The H730P controller provides hardware RAID across the eight large-form-factor bays using SATA drives. No drives are installed, so you populate the bays with the capacity and redundancy level your workload demands. This combination of controller and bay count is the specification that determines whether the chassis matches your storage design.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the two Xeon Gold 6126 CPUs are recognised after the initial boot?
Check the BIOS POST screen or iDRAC9 Enterprise interface — both should show 2 processors, 12 cores each at 2.6GHz.
Which components ship with the chassis and which must be ordered separately?
The 8LFF chassis includes 2x 750W power supplies, PERC H730P RAID controller, 10GbE 562T dual-port adapter, 32GB DDR4 ECC (16GB×2), and iDRAC9 Enterprise; 3.5" drives and rail kit are not included.
Which memory configuration should I select to reach the 3TB maximum?
Populate all 24 DIMM slots with DDR4 ECC Registered modules; the system supports up to 3TB total capacity.
