DELL PowerEdge R740 8LFF Server

The DELL PowerEdge R740 is a 2U rack server built for data-centre workloads that demand high local storage capacity. It ships with two Intel Xeon Gold 6226 processors running at 2.7GHz and 64GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. The 8LFF chassis supports up to eight 3.5-inch SATA drives, making it suitable for database, virtualization or backup targets. Remote management is handled by iDRAC9 with an Enterprise licence.

Installation notes

The unit arrives with firmware updated to the latest stable version and has passed full diagnostics and burn-in testing. Drives are not installed, so you must populate the eight 3.5-inch bays with compatible SATA media before use. The PERC H730P RAID controller manages the array; configure RAID levels during the initial boot cycle. Two 750W power supplies are fitted; ensure both are connected to separate PDU circuits for redundancy.

Pre-order checklist

Verify your rack provides 36 inches of depth and 24 inches of width for the 36 x 24 x 10 inch chassis. Confirm the facility can supply sufficient power for dual 750W supplies on independent circuits. Check that your network infrastructure supports the installed 10GbE 562T two-port adapter. Ensure you have a rail kit or order one separately, as mounting hardware is not included by default.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the two Xeon Gold 6226 CPUs and the 64 GB DDR4 ECC memory are detected and healthy after first boot?

Open the iDRAC9 Enterprise interface, check the System Inventory page and verify both 2.7 GHz 12-core processors and the 64 GB DDR4 ECC Registered modules show "OK" status.

What ships with the chassis and what must I order separately to have a bootable server?

The unit includes the 8-bay 3.5" chassis, 2x Xeon Gold 6226 CPUs, 64 GB DDR4 ECC RAM, PERC H730P RAID controller, dual 750 W supplies, 10 GbE 562T adapter and iDRAC9 Enterprise; drives and rail kit are not included.

Which drive count and form factor should I choose for this 8LFF configuration?

Select up to eight 3.5-inch SATA drives; the backplane supports eight bays and the PERC H730P manages them in any RAID level you require.
