Dell PowerEdge R740 8LFF server

This Dell PowerEdge R740 rack server ships with two Intel Xeon Silver 4108 processors running at 1.8GHz and 256GB of DDR4 ECC registered memory. It is built for organisations that need a dense 2U platform with up to eight 3.5-inch drive bays and integrated 10GbE networking. The PERC H730P RAID controller handles storage redundancy for databases, virtualisation hosts or backup repositories.

Installation notes

The chassis measures 36 x 24 x 10 inches and weighs 40 units, so two people or a lift are recommended for rack mounting. Slide rails are available on request and must be secured before the server is inserted. Drive caddies for the 3.5-inch bays are not included; order the correct Dell trays to avoid fitment issues. BIOS and firmware are already updated to the latest stable version, reducing first-boot configuration time.

Pre-order checklist

Verify that your rack provides at least 2U of vertical space and sufficient depth for the 36-inch chassis. Confirm the facility can supply two 750W power connections for the redundant PSUs. Ensure the PERC H730P controller matches your planned RAID level and that you have compatible 3.5-inch SATA drives or caddies ready. The integrated iDRAC9 Enterprise licence enables remote management, so plan network access for the dedicated management port.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the PERC H730P RAID controller is operating correctly after installation?

Enter the controller BIOS during boot, verify both 1.8GHz Xeon Silver 4108 processors appear, confirm 256GB DDR4 ECC Registered memory is detected, and check that the controller firmware shows the latest stable version applied before shipping.

What components ship inside the 8LFF chassis and which items must be sourced separately?

The server includes 2x Xeon Silver 4108 CPUs, 256GB DDR4 ECC Registered RAM, PERC H730P RAID controller, 10GB 2-port 562T Ethernet adapter, 2x 750W power supplies and iDRAC9 Enterprise; 3.5" SATA drives and rail kit are not installed and must be ordered separately.

Which memory configuration should I select if I need to expand beyond the installed 256GB DDR4?

The R740 supports up to 3TB total DDR4 ECC Registered memory across 24 DIMM slots; populate remaining slots with identical DDR4 modules to maintain matched-channel performance and ECC integrity.
